Hallo, nun brennt mir wieder Die Sonne auf den Hut, Und jüngt mir alle Glieder Und heizt mein träges Blut. Ihr Burschen und ihr Frauen Im Land Italia, Ich werde euch wiederschauen, Ich bin euch selig nah. Ihr Bursche, nun will ich zechen Mit euch den schwarzen Wein Und wieder bei Singen und Stechen Euch Kamerade sein. Ihr Frauen von Rom und Venedig, Nun fallet mir um den Hals, Ich bin noch so jung und ledig Und lustig wie ehemals!
