Arbeit ist des B�rgers Zierde, Segen ist der M�he Preis;
Ehrt den K�nig seine W�rde, ehret uns der H�nde Flei�.

(Work is the citizen�s pride, blessings are the reward for toil;
honor the king his dignity, honor us the diligence of hands.)
Wenn Gott vom Himmel segnet das feld,
so backen wir grosses Brod um kleines Geld.

(When God from heaven blesses the field,
we bake great bread for little money.)
