Drink, drink, drink! Let us have a mighty measure;

Till we quite forget the earth, and soar
Till we quite forget the earth, and soar
In the world, the world of pleasure.
In the world, the world of pleasure.

Drink, and let a health go round,
'Tis the drinker's noble duty,
'Tis the drinker's noble duty,
To the eyes that shine and wound,  
To the eyes that shine and wound,
To the mouths that bud in beauty.

Drink, drink, fill the night with mirth.

When the four wild winds assemble.  
When the four wild winds assemble.
Here's to all the love on earth;  
Here's to all the love on earth;
Love, the young man's, old man's treasure.
Love, the young man's, old man's treasure.
Drink, and fill your throats with mirth.
Drink, and fill your throats with mirth.
Drink, and drown the world in pleasure,  
Drink, and drown the world in pleasure,
Drink, drink, fill the night with mirth.
Drink, drink, fill the night with mirth.

1  Drink, drink, drink! and fill the night with mirth,
Drink, drink, drink! Let us have a mighty measure;
Drink, and fill the night with mirth,
Till we quite forget the earth, and soar
In the world, the world of pleasure.
Drink, and let a health go round,
'Tis the drinker's noble duty,
To the eyes that shine and wound,
To the mouths that bud in beauty.
Drink, drink, fill the night with mirth.

2  Fill, fill, Fill! Fill the deep-mouthed glasses high!
Fill, fill, fill! Let them with the champagne tremble.
Like the loose wrack in the sky,
When the four wild winds assemble.
Here's to all the love on earth;
Love, the young man's, old man's treasure.
Drink, and fill your throats with mirth.
Drink, and drown the world in pleasure,
Drink, drink, fill the night with mirth.
