by Heinrich Stieglitz (1801 - 1849)

Champagnerlied
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Wenn das Atlant'sche Meer
Lauter Champagner wär',
Möcht' ich ein Haifisch sein;
Schlürfte nur Wellen ein. 

Wenn das Atlant'sche Meer
Lauter Champagner wär', 
Wär' ich viel liebe noch
Ein Schiff mit großem Loch. 

Ging' ich dann auch zu Grund, 
Schlürft' in der letzten Stund
Ich deinen Schaum noch ein,
Glühender Champagnerwein!
