Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDCDEEFFEEEGGE HIHIJKJKEEGGEEEAAE| Come brothers share the fellowship | A |
| We celebrate to night | B |
| There's grace of song on every lip | A |
| And every heart is light | B |
| But first before our mentor chimes | C |
| The hour of jubilee | D |
| Let's drink a health to good old times | C |
| And good times yet to be | D |
| Clink clink clink | E |
| Merrily let us drink | E |
| There's store of wealth | F |
| And more of health | F |
| In every glass we think | E |
| Clink clink clink | E |
| To fellowship we drink | E |
| And from the bowl | G |
| No genial soul | G |
| In such an hour can shrink | E |
| - | |
| And you oh friends from west and east | H |
| And other foreign parts | I |
| Come share the rapture of our feast | H |
| The love of loyal hearts | I |
| And in the wassail that suspends | J |
| All matters burthensome | K |
| We 'll drink a health to good old friends | J |
| And good friends yet to come | K |
| Clink clink clink | E |
| To fellowship we drink | E |
| And from the bowl | G |
| No genial soul | G |
| In such an hour will shrink | E |
| Clink clink clink | E |
| Merrily let us drink | E |
| There's fellowship | A |
| In every sip | A |
| Of friendship's brew we think | E |
