¶Liedtext

The beautiful water, that’s flowing so free, Is surely the bev’rage for you and for me; It bubbles and flashes with pure, sparkling light; No chalice of poison could e’er shine so bright. ''Merrily, merrily, merrily sing,'' ''Water, cold water, just brought from the spring;'' ''Merrily, merrily, merrily sing,'' ''Water, cold water, just brought from the spring.'' No wine will we drink; very well do we know There lurketh a monster beneath its bright glow; The wine with its brilliance imparteth a sting: ’Tis water, cold water, we merrily sing. Come, hasten and write down your name on this page; Come, enter the ranks and the foe disengage; No longer stand halting, but give us your hand; For grandly is marching our cold-water band.
