Szynkareczko, szafareczko, bój się Boga, stój!
Tam się śmiejesz,
A tu lejesz miód na kaftan mój!
Nie daruję, wycałuję!
Jakie oczko, brew!
Nóżki małe, ząbki białe,
Hej! spali mnie krew!
Cóż tak bracie wciąż dumacie?
Bierz tam smutki czart!
Pełno nędzy
Ot, pij prędzej, świat tendiabła wart!
Piane nogi zbłądzą z drogi,
Cóż za wielki srom?
Krzykiem żony rozbudzony
Trafisz gdzie twój dom.
Pij, lub kijem się pobijem!
Biegnij dziewczę w czas,
By pogodzić, nie zaszkodzić,
Oblej miodem nas!

A drinking song
Language:
English
Take care, pretty girl; be careful!
You are laughing so much
You're spilling wine all down my coat!
I'll not forgive you! I'll make you pay;
I'll kiss you till I'm exhausted!
Ah, those shining eyes, and those divine lips
set my blood afire!
Come now, moody one,
Let all this brooding go to the devil!
Drink, don't waste time, my boy,
For this sorry world already has its fill of woe.
So what if you can barely walk.
What's the disgrace in that?
When your wife shouts you'll won't hear her;
You'll be out cold on the floor!
Drink down or feel my fist.
Hey, lass, over here!
Just serve us. Don't entice us.
Pour us some beer!
