‘When summer days are warm and still

We like to go o’er wood and hill

Let the journey be as hard as it will,

We’ll sing as we go, Hi ho, hi ho!

All children, hear!

Join us and sing,

O, make the air with music ring!

Our happy band will never stop,

We’ll keep on climbing up, up, up,

Until we’ve reached the very top!

When summer days are warm and still,

We sing as we go, Hi ho, hi ho!’

Pippi sang too, but she didn’t use quite the same words. She sang like this:

‘When summer days are warm and still

And I go over wood and hill

I do exactly what I will

And it drips as I go, Hi ho, hi ho!

And in my shoes,

Because I choose,

It squelches just like orange juice

Because the shoes are soaking wet.

Ho, ha, what a silly bull we met!

And I—I do like chicken croquette!

When summer days are warm and still

It drips as I go. Drip ho! drip ho!’
