Rhyme Scheme: AABB CCDEE FFGG HHII

Laugh and be merry remember better the world with a songA
Better the world with a blow in the teeth of a wrongA
Laugh for the time is brief a thread the length of a spanB
Laugh and be proud to belong to the old proud pageant of manB
-
Laugh and be merry remember in olden timeC
God made Heaven and Earth for joy He took in a rhymeC
Made them and filled them full with the strong red wine ofD
His mirthE
The splendid joy of the stars the joy of the earthE
-
So we must laugh and drink from the deep blue cup of the skyF
Join the jubilant song of the great stars sweeping byF
Laugh and battle and work and drink of the wine outpouredG
In the dear green earth the sign of the joy of the LordG
-
Laugh and be merry together like brothers akinH
Guesting awhile in the rooms of a beautiful innH
Glad till the dancing stops and the lilt of the music endsI
Laugh till the game is played and be you merry my friendsI
