On the mountain's breezy summit	A
Where the southern sunbeams shine	B
Aided by their warming vigor	C
Nature yields the golden wine	B
	-
How the wondrous mother formeth	D
None have ever read aright	A
Hid forever is her working	E
And inscrutable her might	A
	-
Sparkling as a son of Phoebus	F
As the fiery source of light	A
From the vat it bubbling springeth	D
Purple and as crystal bright	A
	-
And rejoiceth all the senses	G
And in every sorrowing breast	A
Poureth hope's refreshing balsam	H
And on life bestows new zest	A
	-
But their slanting rays all feebly	I
On our zone the sunbeams shoot	A
They can only tinge the foliage	J
But they ripen ne'er the fruit	A
	-
Yet the north insists on living	E
And what lives will merry be	I
So although the grape is wanting	E
We invent wine cleverly	I
	-
Pale the drink we now are offering	E
On the household altar here	K
But what living Nature maketh	D
Sparkling is and ever clear	L
	-
Let us from the brimming goblet	A
Drain the troubled flood with mirth	D
Art is but a gift of heaven	M
Borrowed from the glow of earth	D
	-
Even strength's dominions boundless	F
'Neath her rule obedient lie	N
From the old the new she fashions	O
With creative energy	I
	-
She the elements' close union	M
Severs with her sovereign nod	A
With the flame upon the altar	C
Emulates the great sun god	A
	-
For the distant happy islands	P
Now the vessel sallies forth	D
And the southern fruits all golden	M
Pours upon the eager north	D
	-
As a type then as an image	Q
Be to us this fiery juice	R
Of the wonders that frail mortals	S
Can with steadfast will produce	R
