The lyrics:
Mürtsub trumm ja pillid hüüavad,
Sõdurid nüüd marsivad.
Kõmab maa ja kajab marsiviis,
seisma jääb igaüks küll siis.
Rikkust, vara pole sõduril,
pole roos ta ega lill,
selle eest ta ikka täismees,
neiud sulavad ta ees.
Mis teeb sõdurile rividrill,
varba vahel vesivill!
Kui on kasuks isamaale see,
minna võib läbi tule, vee.
Aga kui on laula hernesupp,
sõduril siis aurab nupp,
ootama siis jäägu neiud,
tal on teha hoopis muud!
Rough English translation:
The drum beats and the instruments shout,
The soldiers are now marching.
The earth rumbles and the march tune echoes,
everyone will stop then.
A soldier has no wealth, no property,
it is not a rose or a flower,
for that he is still a man,
maidens melt before him.
