Is it night? Would darkness fright us? | |||
Let us drive dull thoughts away; | |||
Let gay mirth and songs unite us, | |||
Till we see the rising day. | |||
Fly, care, to the winds | |||
Thus I blow thee away; | |||
I’ll drown thee in wine, | |||
If thou darest to stay. | |||

Is it night? Would darkness fright us?
Let us drive dull thoughts away;
Let gay mirth and songs unite us,
Till we see the rising day.
Fly, care, to the winds
Thus I blow thee away;
I’ll drown thee in wine,
If thou darest to stay.
