Drink Deep

Drink deep of victory and hail to the bold
The bards from the legends say;
From honor in battle to glory and gold
Come weal or woe, we welcome it the same.

Drink deep of fortune and answer the call
When the war cry beside you is made;
With word or with wit or unshakeable grit,
With helm and with shield and the blade.

CHORUS
For our meeting’s a joy,
And our parting a sorrow,
As one, we raise our glasses high,
To remember the fallen,
We shall sing ‘til the morning,
And drink,
Deep [shout]
Deep of victory.
…
Drink
Deep
Deep of victory
(x2)

Drink deep the dawn on the day when our
Ambitions and virtues have begun;
Follow the lovers when light fades away
To the oaths and bonds yet unsung.

Drink deep of parting in black of the night
When the moon hides her face from the sky;
Flowers of scarlet are blooming among them
And life passes on with a sigh.

Chorus
