German text
Text in choral arrangement:
Bacchus, edler Fürst des Weins,
komm mit Augen hellen Scheins;
uns're Sorg' verscheuch' dein Fass,
und dein Laub uns krönen lass.
Schenk' Wein, bis die Welt sich dreht!
Unser Sang erschalle hoch!
Wein mit Sang schmeckt besser noch.
So entfliehet froh die Zeit;
wem's nicht mundet, fliehe weit!
Hoch dir, edler Göttertrank!
(2. verse attributed to Friedrich Reil)
