The Parting Glass

Of all the money that e’er I had
I spent it in good company
And all the harm I’ve ever done
Alas, it was to none but me
And all I’ve done for want of wit
To mem’ry now I can’t recall
So fill to me the parting glass
Goodnight and joy be with you all
So fill to me the parting glass
And drink a health whate’er befalls
Then gently rise and softly call
«Goodnight and joy be to you all»
Of all the comrades that e’er I had
Are sorry for my going away
And all the sweethearts that e’er I had
Would wish me one more day to stay
But since it falls unto my lot
That I should rise and you should not
I’ll gently rise and I’ll softly call
«Goodnight and joy be to you all»
Fill to me the parting glass
And drink a health whate’er befalls
Then gently rise and softly call
«Goodnight and joy be to you all»
Fill to me the parting glass
And drink a health whate’er befalls
Then gently rise and softly call
«Goodnight and joy be to you all»
Good night and joy be to you all
