Preab San Ol(original) |
Why spend your leisure bereft of pleasure |
A massing treasure, why scrape and save? |
Why look so canny at every penny? |
You’ll take no money within the grave |
Landlords and gentry with all their plenty |
Must still go empty where ever they’re bound |
So to my thinking we’d best be drinking |
Our glasses clinking and round and round |
King Solomon’s glory, so famed in story |
Was far outshone by the lilies guise |
But hard winds harden, both field and garden |
Pleading for pardon, the lily dies |
Life’s but a bauble of toil and trouble |
The feathered arrow, once shot, never found |
So, lads and lasses because life passes |
Come fill your glasses for another round |
(translation) |
