German text
Freunde, Wasser machet stumm,
lernet dieses an den Fischen,
doch beim Weine kehrt sich's um
dieses lernt an unsern Tischen.
Was für Redner sind wir nicht,
wenn der Rheinwein aus uns spricht
Wir ermahnen, streiten, lehren,
keiner will den andern hören.
Freunde, Wasser machet stumm.
English translation
Brothers, water makes us dumb.
Just observe the little fishes.
But with wine it's something else.
This we learn each night at supper.
Oraters we're surely not
when the rhine wine for us speaks.
We admonish, lecture, argue.
No one listens to the other.
Brothers, water makes us dumb.
