What are the Kaiser's favorite poemsA
Well now you tax me hardB
I know the Kaiser's favorite drinkC
But do not know his bardB
I'm sure it is not SchillerD
Who reigns in German homesE
Nor yet Olympian GoetheF
Who writes the Kaiser's poemsA
-
Perhaps that Heinrich HeineG
Has touched the Kaiser's soulH
Or Arndt with his trumpet callI
Like a new conscription rollH
Or Walther von der VogelweideB
With his nest in mythic domesE
Is the author and creatorD
Of the Kaiser's favorite poemsA
-
If I saw the Kaiser's libraryJ
I'd know well what he readsK
The color of his fancyJ
And the prompter of his deedsK
I'd learn the depth and wisdomL
Of his theories and his gnomesE
If I got but just a glance or twoM
At the Kaiser's favorite poemsA
-
Then let us go to EssenN
Where the Kaiser's books are boundB
They are full of steel engravingsO
All best sellers there are foundB
For the Prussian soul and spiritB
Speaks in rhythm thro' those tomesE
And these without a questionN
Are the Kaiser's favorite poemsA

For Rt Hon David Lloyd GeorgeP
