Is it night? Would darkness fright us?
Is it night? Would darkness fright us?
Let us drive dull thoughts away;
Let us drive dull thoughts away;

Thus I blow thee away;
Thus I blow thee away;
I’ll drown thee in wine,
I’ll drown thee in wine,
If thou darest to stay.
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.
