Ergo Bibamus! |

________________________________________________
Title: Ergo Bibamus! Author: Johann Wolfgang von Goethe [More Titles by Goethe] FOR a praiseworthy object we're now gather'd here, So, brethren, sing: ERGO BIBAMUS! Remember then: ERGO BIBAMUS! A glorious ERGO BIBAMUS! I saw mine own love in her beauty so rare, And bethought me of: ERGO BIBAMUS; While I help'd myself, thinking: BIBAMUS! In the comforting ERGO BIBAMUS! I am call'd by my fate far away from each friend; Ye loved ones, then: ERGO BIBAMUS! So double our ERGO BIBAMUS! So, brethren, sing; ERGO BIBAMUS! And what shall we say of to-day as it flies? I thought but of: ERGO BIBAMUS So again and again sing: BIBAMUS! While we thunder our: ERGO BIBAMUS!
