Interpretation
The song lyrics "O Bello!" by
Heinz Rühmann tell the story of a joyful Sunday outing of the family. The family sets off on a countryside trip on a Sunday morning at six o'clock. The dog Bello barks and the children sing, which bothers the neighbors. The family wishes that the whole year could be like a Sunday, full of happiness and sunshine.
During the journey, Aunt Frieda gets in and loses her left shoe. She blames the dog Bello, but the mother says that the father is not to blame. Nevertheless, the family continues to wish that the whole year could be like a Sunday.
When the family finally walks through the forest, Bello grabs the sandwich package and Aunt Frieda gets sore feet. She throws her right shoe into a lake. Nevertheless, the family's wish remains that the whole year could be like a Sunday.
On the way back home, the boys are punished, but everyone has recovered well. On Monday, you can still hear the family singing the song and expressing the wish that the whole year could be like a Sunday, full of happiness and sunshine.
