Fredmans Espitel No. 14
 (Sung text for setting by H. Alfvén)
 See original
Language: Swedish (Svenska) 
Hör, I Orphei drängar
Stämmen edra strängar;
Knäppen alla, pling, pling, plang,
Till Apollos pris!
I som till exempel
Uti Fröjas tempel
Nederfalla, pling, pling, plang,
Följen er kapris!
I som pröven gammalt öl, gutår,
Eder önskas fuktigt silverhår,
pling, pling, plang,
pling, pling, plang,
Och en strupa som förmår.

 ... 

Frukta intet dunder!
Under över under.
Bägarn blänker pling, pling, plang,
Klar som en juvel.
Spegla dig: ditt hjärta
Skall bli kvitt all smärta,
När du tänker pling, pling, plang.
Blott på sång och spel.
Ej i vatten, nej, i cypervin 
paradiset blommar, min kusin, 
pling, pling, plang,
pling, pling, plang, 
sätt dig neder, håll, god min!
