HOTA, Kathreinerle
Hota, Kathreinerle is a German folk and children's song . It was first published in Clemens Neumanns Spielmann in 1928.
Melodically it is based on an old and popular song, namely "Gügük im Häfele". Its original melody can be traced back to the 14th century and was part of the standard repertoire of the Pfeifertage until around 1730.
In terms of lyrics, he is a new creation of the 20th century. In terms of content, it is a dance request for a girl. In addition, it should be funny until the landlady sweeps the dance floor the next morning. Linguistically, the text shows strong references to the southern German dialect .
text
According to the folk song archive, the text is as follows:
Hot, Kathreinerle, lace up your shoes,
put on your skirt, don't allow yourself any rest.
Di-dl, du-dl, da-dl, shrink, shrink, shrink,
the hop is already going around,
heie Kathreinerle, always fresh!
Turn like a cog in the dance!
When the braids fly, the wreath swirls.
Di-dl, du-dl, da-dl, shrink, shrink, shrink,
funny in a circle,
turn around , my girl, in the festive glow.
Today it's fun, tomorrow it's over.
If the glow falls, let's go home.
Di-dl, du-dl, da-dl, shrink, shrink, shrink,
tomorrow with a lot of
hum. The landlady sweeps the dance floor.
