In

banquet-hall

'tis

meetest

To

raise

the

echoing

laugh

:

In

jocund

hour

'tis

sweetest

The

bowl's

deep

flood

to

quaff.

Aye

!

let

your

mirth

be

loud

and

long

!

Let

voice

and

heart

be

free

!

And

'midst

the

din

of

shout

and

song

Let

all

feast

merrily

!

Go

forth,

my

sons,

to

glory

!

Gro

climb

the

steeps

of

fame

!

Go

!

and

in

future

story

Enrol

your

shining

name

!

May

no dark

cloud

obscure

your

sky

;

No

fear

your

soul

dismay

:

Nor

keener

sorrow

dim

your

eye

Than

claims

the

tear

to-day

!
