English translation
Soprano:
- When I drink light red wine, friend,
- Everything goes round and round
- So from now on I'll drink Anjou or Arbois
- Let's sing and drink and wage war on this bottle
- Let's sing and drink, my friends, let's drink!
Alto:
- Good wine renders us merry, let's sing,
- Forget our sorrows, let's sing!
- While eating of a fat ham,
- On this bottle let us wage war!
Tenor & Bass:
- Let us drink well, drink my friends, clink glasses,
- Drink, merrily sing!
- While eating of a fat ham,
- On this bottle let us wage war!
German translation
Soprano:
- Hei, der gute kühle Wein macht alles kunter, kunterbunt
- sich drehen, trinket mit uns, wir schenken ein Anjou und Arbois.
Alto, Tenor & Bass:
- Hei, der gute, kühle Wein! Schenkt ein
- und leert ihn bis zum Grunde!
- Hat man auch ein Schinkembein,
- wie schmeckt der Wein in guter Runde!
