A bundám szőrös... (Swiss children's song)
I would like to teach you a sweet and simple Swiss children's song on the ukulele, with Hungarian lyrics written by István Csukás. Strictly speaking, he did not write lyrics for the entire original song, only for the section heard in the recording and which also appears in the Ringató series, in the Lila könyv (“Purple Book”). In August I showed you a Flemish folk song (lullaby) from the same book, so now I am continuing the series. I also encourage beginners to learn this song because its accompaniment uses only two chords, and even the fingerstyle version is not difficult. It is worth learning the song itself first, then singing it with chord accompaniment, and finally moving on to the fingerstyle arrangement.
At the end of each line you can see the “brumm-brumm” part, which is not in the original song. This addition comes from Ringató sessions, and it sounds especially good when the fathers join in and produce a proper bear-like voice at the end of the lines .
Here are the original Hungarian lyrics and chords:
[C]A bundám szőrös, kócos és a [G]talpaim na[C]gyok - [G]brumm - [C]brumm.
[C]A házam sűrű rengeteg, a [G]medve én va[C]gyok - [G]brumm - [C]brumm.
[C]Ha brummogok, itt megremeg az [G]erdő renge[C]teg - [G]brumm - [C]brumm.
[C]A málnabokrot megszedem, a [G]mézet kedve[C]lem - [G]brumm - [C]brumm.
