~ Oft dreht si das Dirndl ~ | |
A nice Joseph Rieber & Co., print under glaze German stein with an ornate pewter engraved lid. The scene in front features a Bavarian couple dancing with the text in Bayern (Bavarian dialect), ca. first half of 1900's. | |
Oft dreht si das Dirndl, oft dreht si der Bua, oft oft fasst er ums miederl, und jauchzet dazu. |
Often the girl turns, often the boy turns, Often he grabs her bodice, with a joyful cheer |
