| We can't refuse we can't refuse | B |
| Though bright eyes so abound boy | A |
| 'Tis hard to choose 'tis hard to choose | B |
| For thick as stars that lighten | C |
| Yon airy bowers yon airy bowers | D |
| The countless eyes that brighten | C |
| This earth of ours this earth of ours | D |
| But fill the cup where'er boy | A |
| Our choice may fall our choice may fall | E |

| They seem but given they seem but given | C |
| As shining beacons solely | F |
| To light to heaven to light to heaven | C |
| While some oh ne'er believe them | G |
| With tempting ray with tempting ray | H |
| Would lead us God forgive them | G |
| The other way the other way | H |
| But fill the cup where'er boy | A |
| Our choice may fall our choice may fall | E |
| We're sure to find Love there boy | A |
| So drink them all so drink them all | E |
| - | |
| In some as in a mirror | I |
| Love seems pourtray'd Love seems pourtray'd | J |
| But shun the flattering error | I |
| 'Tis but his shade 'tis but his shade | J |
| Himself has fix'd his dwelling | K |
| In eyes we know in eyes we know | L |
| And lips but this is telling | K |
| So here they go so here they go | L |
| Fill up fill up where'er boy | A |
| Our choice may fall our choice may fall | E |
| We're sure to find Love there boy | A |
| So drink them all so drink them all | E |
