LICHTER:

Y tea is nearly ready and the sun has left
the sky;

It’s time to take the window to see Leerie going
by;

For every night at tea-time and before you take
your seat,

With lantern and with ladder he comes posting up
the street.

Now Tom would be a driver and Maria go to sea,

And my papa’s a banker and as rich as he
can be;

But I, when I am stronger and can choose what
I’m to do,

O Leerie, 1’l1 go round at night and light the
lamps with you !
