Lyrics:

Now we raise our glasses high 
Comrades till the day we die!
Cu pu tu pu, cu pu tu pu, 
Lift a glass to friendship!

Jackob drinks with Farmer Frederick, 
Fill the friendly glasses! 
Michael drinks with Mayor Drobny, 
How the evening passes! 

Now we raise our glasses high, 
Jackob, Frederick, you and I! 

Jackob drinks with Farmer Frederick, 
Michaiel drinks with Mayor Drobny,
Cu pu tu pu, cu pu tu pu, 
Lift a glass to friendship! 

Laszlow drinks with Uncle Stefan
Steins are overflowing!
Peter drinks with Jan the baker,
Merryment is, growing! 
Now we raise our glasses high, Laszlo, Stefan, you and I 

Jackob drinks with Farmer Frederick
Michael drinks with Mayor Drobny,
Laszlo drinks with uncle Stefan,
Peter drinks with Jan the baker, 

Cu pu tu pu cu pu tu pu, Lift a glass to friendship 

How very soon the purse is empty,
How the evening passes
Now we toast the kindly bar man, Kindly fill the glasses!
Now we raise our glasses high Kindly bar man, you and I


Jackob drinks with Farmer Frederick,
Michael drinks with Mayor Drobny, 
Laszlo drinks with Uncle Stefan,
Peter drinks with Jan the baker Kindly barman, fill the glasses, 
How the evening quickly, passes!

Cu pu tu pu, cu pu tu pu,
Lift a glass to friendship!
