Auf alte Zeit
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Soll alte Treu' vergessen sein,
verbannt aus Aller Brust?
Soll alte Treu' vergessen sein
und altzer Zeiten Lust?
Auf alte Zeit, ihr Freunde mein,
auf alte Traulichkeit
soll dieses Glas getrunken sein,
stoßt an auf alte Zeit!
Ja, stoßet an!

Nimm meine Hand hier zum Gewähr,
reich' mir die deine auch!
Auf alter Treue Wiederkehr,
komm, trink' auf alten Brauch!
Und füll' aufs Neu' die Becher du,
so bin auch ich bereit
und trink' ihn dir noch einmal zu:
Stoßt an auf alte Zeit!
Ja, stoßet an!
