by Adolf Schults (1820 - 1858)

Die Schenke soll meine Wohnung sein
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Die Schenke soll meine Wohnung sein
Vom Herbste bis zum Lenzen;
Drum schafft, Herr Wirth, eine Tonne Wein
Und ein Mägdlein zum Kredenzen.

Der rauhe Winter kann nicht herein
In dieses Hauses Grenzen:
Mag draußen stürmen es oder schnei'n,
Ich sehe den Frühling glänzen.

O Schenkin, schenk' aus dem Krug mir ein,
Den leeren laß ergänzen!
Zum Danke will ich zur Zeit des Mai'n
Deiu Haar mit Blumen bekränzen.
