Lyrics
Come let us prepare
Come, let's prepare for a celebration.
We brothers that are
We, the brothers, are gathered here.
Joined on this merry occasion;
Celebrating together joyfully.
Let's drink, laugh and sing;
Let's drink, laugh, and sing.
Our wine has a spring,
Our wine is abundant and refreshing.
Here's health to the men of the nation.
To the well-being of the men of our nation.
The world is in pain
The world is troubled.
Our secrets to gain
We keep our secrets guarded.
But still let them guess and gaze on;
Let others speculate and wonder;
They'll never divine
They will never uncover
The word or the sign
The essence or the symbol
Of free and strong men of the nation.
Of free and strong men of our nation.
It's this and it's that
It's this and that,
They cannot tell why
They can't comprehend why
So many great men of the nation
Many great men of our nation
Should aprons put on
Choose to wear aprons
To make themselves one
To unite with those who have found salvation.
With the men who have found their salvation.
Then joined hand in hand
We'll stand together,
To each other we'll stand
Merrily with cheerful faces;
Be merry with bright faces on;
No mortal can boast
What mortal can boast
Of a nobler toast
So noble a toast
Than free and strong men of our nation!
As free and strong men of the nation!
