Put round the bright wine

Put round the bright wine - Ludwig van Beethoven (貝多芬)/Wolfgang Holzmair/Trio Wanderer

Written by：Ludwig van Beethoven

Put round the bright wine

For my bosom is gay

The night may have sunshine

As well as the day

Oh welcome the hours

When dear visions arise

To melt my kind spirit

And charm my fond eyes

When wine to my head

Can it's wisdom impart

And love has it's promise

To make to my heart

When dim in far shade

Sink the spectres of care

And I tread a bright world

With a footstep of air

If life be a dream

'Tis a pleasant one sure

And the dream of tonight

We at least may secure

If life be a bubble

Tho' better I deem

Let us light up it's colours

By gaiety's beam

Away with cold vapours

I pity the mind

That nothing but dullness

And darkness can find

Give me the kind spirit

That laughs on it's way

And turns thorns into roses

And winters to may
