Original text and translations

French text

Soprano:
Quand je bois du vin clairet, ami, tout tourne
aussi désormais je bois Anjou ou Arbois
Chantons et buvons, ã ce flacon faisons la guerre
Chantons et buvons, mes amis, buvons donc!
Alto:
Le bon vin nous a rendu gais, chantons
oublions nos peines, chantons!
En mangeant d'un gras jambon à ce flacon faisons la guerre!
Tenor & Bass:
Buvons bien, buvons mes amis trinquons,
buvons, gaiement chantons!
En mangeant d'un gras jambon à ce flacon faisons la guerre!

English translation

Soprano:
When I drink light red wine, friend,
Everything goes round and round
So from now on I'll drink Anjou or Arbois
Let's sing and drink and wage war on this bottle
Let's sing and drink, my friends, let's drink!
Alto:
Good wine renders us merry, let's sing,
Forget our sorrows, let's sing!
While eating of a fat ham,
On this bottle let us wage war!
Tenor & Bass:
Let us drink well, drink my friends, clink glasses,
Drink, merrily sing!
While eating of a fat ham,
On this bottle let us wage war!

German translation

Soprano:
Hei, der gute kühle Wein macht alles kunter, kunterbunt
sich drehen, trinket mit uns, wir schenken ein Anjou und Arbois.
Alto, Tenor & Bass:
Hei, der gute, kühle Wein! Schenkt ein
und leert ihn bis zum Grunde!
Hat man auch ein Schinkembein,
wie schmeckt der Wein in guter Runde!

Hungarian translation

Soprano:
Mikor könnyű bort iszom,
A világ forog, forog, forog körbe',
Többé mást nem iszom csak Anjout vagy Arbois-t.
Dalolj és igyál, a jó flaskával mi elbánunk,
Dalolj és igyál, bút feledd, igyál hát!
Alto:
A jó bortól vígan vagyunk,
Dalolj, felejtsd el a búdat, dalolj!
Zsíros sonkát majszolunk,
A jó flaskával elbánunk!
Tenor & Bass:
Igyunk hát, igyunk, barátom,
Koccints, igyunk, vígan dalolj!
Zsíros sonkát majszolunk,
A jó flaskával elbánunk!

Polish translation by Stanisław Jonczyk

Sopran:
Gdy popijam ja claireta
Świat się kręci, ale feta!
Więc od dzisiaj będę pił
Anjou, Arbois ile sił.
Alt:
Pić i śpiewać bardzo lubię,
O kłopotach zapominam,
Mam już chyba ostro w czubie.
Hej, nalejcie jeszcze wina!
Tenor i Bas:
Stoczmy bitwę o butelkę
Niech o szkło zabrzęczy szkło
Jeszcze tylko po kropelce
Szynka, wino, to jest to!
