Full Lyrics
All hail! happy greeting
To one and all!
Let joy and peace this hour abound,
For ’tis the time of jubilee,
Let ev’ry one enjoy this hour of merry festal glee.
May pleasures pure, and unalloyed, be unto us, assembled here,
Hail, festal day! Hail, festal day! We’ll let the merry music cheer.
Let all today
in heart be gay,
and seek the pleasure of the moments quickly fleeting,
With joyful lay
drive care away,
and join the song of welcome happy greeting. greeting.
All hail! happy greeting
To one and all!
