[Ger-Poland-Volhynia] Origin of given ame ILSE

[joepessarra]

My roommate in college gave me this one.

 

Mutter, Mutter, gibt mir Groschen,

Ich muss Rutschbahn gehen.

Oh, ja, dass ist so schoen,

Auf der Rutschbahn gehen.

Immer schneller, auf und unter,

Bis nach dem Himmel kann Mann sehen.

 

Mother, mother, give me a penny,

I must go on the rollercoaster.

Oh, yes, that is so fine,

To go on the rollercoaster.

Ever faster, up and down,

Until one can see to heaven.

 

I think I have all the words right, but anyone is welcome to correct me.

 

Mein Deutsch ist schlect, aber mein Herz ist recht.

(Ein alte deutsche Sagend, dass habe ich nur heute ausgemacht!) ;<))

Hello Rita,
yes I know it. In full, it reads:

"Ilse Bilse, keiner willse.
Kam der Koch, nahm se doch."
