Twenty Hungarian Folk Songs for voice and piano (1929; BB 98)

Virágéknál ég a világ,
Sütik már a rántott békát,
Zimezum, zimezum,
Recefice bum bum bum.


Váci Gábor odakapott,
Békacombot ropogtatott,
Zimezum, zimezum,
Recefice bum bum bum.


Puskás Mihály későn futott,
Neki csak a fara jutott,
Zimezum, zimezum,
Recefice bum bum bum.

The light is burning at the Virágs’ house;
They are roasting the fried frog.
Zimezum, zimezum,
Recefice boom boom boom.


Gábor Váci made a grab,
He munched a frog leg.
Zimezum, zimezum,
Recefice bum bum bum.


Mihály Puskás arrived too late,
He was only left the butt.
Zimezum, zimezum,
Recefice boom boom boom.
