This piece starts with a gentle, music box-like melody played on a glockenspiel, creating a sense of innocence and wonder. As the song progresses, the waltz rhythm becomes more pronounced, with the addition of a playful accordion and a mischievous clarinet, evoking the image of the marionette coming to life. The string section joins in, adding depth and richness to the arrangement, while the occasional appearance of a celesta and a harp creates a touch of enchantment. The dynamics shift between soft and dreamy passages and more lively, energetic moments, reflecting the marionette's curious exploration of its surroundings. The composition concludes with a return to the initial music box theme, leaving the listener with a sense of nostalgia and wonder.
