Songteksten
Who hath woe? Who hath sorrow?
Who hath contentions? Who hath babbling?
Who hath wounds without cause?
Who hath redness of the eyes?
They that tarry long at the wine
They that go to seek mixed wine
Look not thou upon the wine when it is red
When it giveth his colour in the cup
When it moveth itself aright
At last it bitteth like a serpent
And stingeth like an adder
Thine eyes shall behold strange women
And thine heart shall utter perverse things
Yea, thou shalt be as he that lieth down
In the midst of the sea
Or as he that lieth upon the top of a mast
They have stricken me, shalt thou say
And I was not sick they have beaten me
And I felt it not: when shall I awake?
I will seek it yet again
