Poď, povedali mi, Pa-rum-pum-pum-pum
Novonarodeného kráľa vidieť, Pa-rum-pum-pum-pum
Naše najlepšie darčeky, ktoré prinášame, Pa-rum-pum-pum-pum
Položiť pred kráľa, Pa-rum-pum-pum-pum,
Pa-rum-pum-pum-pum,
Pa-rum-pum-pum-pum
Pa-rum-pum-pum-pum,
Pa-rum-pum-pum-pum
Pa-rum-pum-pum-pum
(2. verš)
Malé dieťa, Pa-rum-pum-pum-pum,
Aj ja som chudobný chlapec, Pa-rum-pum-pum-pum
Nemám darček, ktorý by som priniesol, Pa-rum-pum-pum-pum
To je vhodné dať kráľovi, Pa-rum-pum-pum-pum,
Pa-rum-pum-pum-pum,
Pa-rum-pum-pum-pum
Pa-rum-pum-pum-pum
Pa-rum-pum-pum-pum
(3. verš)
Mám ti zahrať, Pa-rum-pum-pum-pum
Na môj bubon, Pa-rum-pum-pum-pum ?
Mary prikývla, Pa-rum-pum-pum-pum,
Vôl a jahňa dodržali čas, Pa-rum-pum-pum-pum
Pa-rum-pum-pum-pum
Pa-rum-pum-pum-pum
Pa-rum-pum-pum-pum
Pa-rum-pum-pum-pum
(verš 4)
Hral som na svoj bubon pre Neho, Pa-rum-pum-pum-pum
Hral som pre Neho najlepšie, ako som vedel, Pa-rum-pum-pum-pum
Potom sa na mňa usmial, Pa-rum-pum-pum-pum
Ja a môj bubon, Pa-rum-pum-pum-pum,
Pa-rum-pum-pum-pum,
Pa-rum-pum-pum-pum
Pa-rum-pum-pum-pum,
Pa-rum-pum-pum-pum
