Karl Friedrich Müchler,
Down deep within the cellar

tradukita de John Oxenford

Down deep within the cellar, here

Against a butt I rest, Sir,

My heart of ev'ry care I clear,

And swear I'll have the best, Sir.

The cellar man taps any cask,

I choose by nod or winking;

He fills the glass, he loves his task

As I love drinking, drinking!

The demon thirst I could withstand,

Nay, if I could, would kill it;

I therefor take my glass in hand

And with good liquor fill it.

The world then wears a hue so gay,

It nearly sets me blinking;

All evil thoughts I scare away,

While drinking, drinking, drinking!

Bu oh, at ev`ry glass I drain,

That ragging thirst increases,

To drown it, tiplers strive in vain,

It never, never ceases.

Yet where's the odds if down I fall?

E'en now I feel a sinking;

I do not harm, wish well to all,

While drinking, drinking, drinking!
