Come let us prepare We brothers that are Joined on this merry occasion; Let's drink, laugh and sing; Our wine has a spring, Here's health to the men of the nation.
The world is in pain Our secrets to gain But still let them guess and gaze on; They'll never divine The word or the sign Of free and strong men of the nation.
It's this and it's that They cannot tell why So many great men of the nation Should aprons put on To make themselves one With the men who have found their salvation.
Then joined hand in hand To each other we'll stand Be merry with bright faces on; What mortal can boast So noble a toast As free and strong men of the nation!
