Shall we forget how in our day | B |
The Sabine fields about us lay | B |
In amaranth and asphodel | B |
And bubbling cold Bandusian well | B |
Fair Pyrrhas haunting every way | B |
In dells of forest faun and fay | B |
Moss lounged within the fountain's spray | B |
How drained we wines too rare to tell | B |
Shall we forget | C |

The fine Falernian or the ray | B |
Of fiery C cuban while gay | B |
We heard Bacchantes shout and yell | B |
Filled full of Bacchus and so fell | B |
To dreaming of some Lydia | D |

If we forget in after years | E |
My comrade all the hopes and fears | E |
That hovered all our walks around | F |
When ent'ring on that mystic ground | F |
Of ghostly legends where one hears | G |
By bandit towers the chase that nears | E |
Thro' cracking woods the oaths and cheers | E |
Of demon huntsman horn and hound | F |
If we forget | C |

Lenora's lover and her tears | H |
Fierce Wallenstein satanic sneers | E |
Of the red devil Goethe bound | F |
Why then forsooth they soon are found | F |
In burly stoops of German beers | E |
If we forget | C |
