Brüder, lasst uns lustig sein
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Our translations:  FRE NOR
Brüder, lasst uns lustig sein, 
trotzet wacker den Beschwerden, 
denkt, es ist der Fluch der Erden:
Jeder Mensch hat seine Pein. 
 
Lasst uns singen, lasst uns lachen,
kann mans doch nicht anders machen.
Welt und Not ist einerlei,
keiner bleibt von Plagen frei.
