by Emanuel von Geibel (1815 - 1884)

Aus dem Schenkbuch I
 (Sung text for setting by H. Kjerulf)
 Matches original text
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Handeln und singen in guten Tagen,
In böser Zeit dazwischen schlagen,
Oder, bist du verdammt zu ruhn,
Nur nicht in müßiges Grollen versinken!
Immer noch besser ist Schwärmen und Trinken
Als sich ärgern und gar nichts tun.
