Må mjøden aldrig slippe op
Et bundløst kar skal fyldes
Fat jer hver en kvindekrop
Og drik til gudernes hyldest
Lad da ej en fremmed stå
Maven tom og halsen tør
Byd ham låret fra en då
Og byd ham indenfor vor dør
"hey - vi løfter kruset højt
Skål - for alle om vor bord
Hey - alle folk syng med
Nu det tid til druk og hor!"
Møer skænker frydeligt
Den mjød der giver varme
Hver en mand får rigeligt
Af kvinder i vor arme
Når natten står stille på hæld
Lister vi mod laden
Men der ligger andre i halm
Så næste valg er heden
"hey - vi løfter kruset højt
Skål - for alle om vor bord
Hey - alle folk syng med
Nu det tid til druk og hor!"
Brage skænk musik til hus
Og lad bægeret bringe
Freya skænk os ungdoms sus
Og lad blide kvinder synge
Se vor møer danse kan
En skål for vore kvinders krop
Spillemænd slå strengen an
Spil til morgensol står op
"hey - vi løfter kruset højt
Skål - for alle om vor bord
Hey - alle folk syng med
Nu det tid til druk og hor!"
