est la baguette fraiche

dubailte dubailte kesusahan und guaio

umlilo adolebitque und ketel bombolla

umucu di una pantanoso neidr

oog di tritons und kaki di rano

yun di fledermoyz und lingua di chien

viperae foarke und blyn cuc stik

moo fotur und ovlet tis

pre eng viehatys di voimakas guaio

mag un inferno salda bouyi und bombolla
