1. Bring me some gold, or else two jugs
This soul of mine is born of two moons

2. Bring them both, give me a drink
And let joy fill these two cups

3. In the eyes it's shining light
And air refreshing in the lungs

4. Take it out of the lowly rabble
A cure for the longing in the soul of the longing one

5. Then wrap it round with a cup that seemed
Like a child held by both hands

6. My love it is a narcissus
And in your cheeks I see two roses

7. No matter if you smell this
Or pluck that with your lips

8. Bring it, then take it and clink the cup
Against the cup and shake your shoulders

9. For the two cups tell us
The hour of joy has struck twice

10. Give me a drink until I see people
Walking on four, not two legs

11. By God they only lack in donkeys
The length of their two ears
