Verse 1

Now so merry we have met, and so merry let us be,
Over a pint or a pot of strong beer.
Now so merry we have met, and so merry let us be,
Over a pint or a pot of strong beer.

Verse 2

Let no malice or strife in your bosom now dwell,
For as happy as we live may we die.
Let no malice or strife in your bosom now dwell,
For as happy as we live may we die.

Verse 3

You people all here, are merry I know,
In a way that is no disgrace.
You people all here, are merry I know,
In a way that is no disgrace.

Verse 4

Then after I'm dead not a tear shall be shed,
Nor one letter grief on my tomb.
Then after I'm dead not a tear shall be shed,
Nor one letter grief on my tomb.

Verse 5

But on my coffin some inscription put on,
And to say that my singing's all done.
But on my coffin some inscription put on,
And to say that my singing's all done.
