by Friedrich von Matthisson (1761 - 1831)

Trinklied
Language: German (Deutsch) 
  Selig beim funkelnden
  Nektar vergessen
  Traurer des dunkelnden
  Grabes Zipressen,
Locken und Becher von Rosen umglüht.
  Auf! eh' die moosigen
  Hügel uns winken
  Wonne von rosigen
  Lippen zu trinken;
Huldigung Allem was jugendlich blüht!

Confirmed with Friedrich Matthissons Gedichte. Herausgegeben von Joh. Heinr. Füssli. Vermehrte Auflage. Zürich. Bey Orell, Gessner, Füssli und Compagnie. 1792, page 128.
