Lied der Gesellschaft des Frohsinns
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Freude, schweb' hernieder,
würze unser Mahl,
stimm' in uns're Lieder,
Frohsinn beim Pokal.
Alte Sorgen schwinden,
wo der Frohsinn wacht;
lasst ihn Kränze winden,
singet, liebt und lacht!

Haltet hier im Kreise
ja den Frohsinn fest,
der nach seiner Weise
Fröhl'che nie verlässt.
Er bringt heit'res Scherzen,
gibt stets neuen Schwung;
selbst bemooste Herzen
macht er frisch und jung.

Frohsinn, dir erklinget
der Pokal mit Wein;
Freunde! Auf, und singet
fröhlich im Verein!
Lasst den Zirkel leben,
der sich Frohsinn nennt;
Einigkeit wird geben,
dass er nie sich trennt.
