W:With pipe and with fiddle, with drum and with bell,
W:we sing our wassail, me boys, to wish you all well.
W:Long life and good fortune to all who live here!
W:God bless you and send you a happy New Year.
W:
W:Through weeds and through snow we have come to your door.
W:A small drop of porter is all we implore.
W:And then we will sing with all proper decorum;
W:The yeast and the barley drive sorrows before 'em.
W:
W:Some nutmeg and ginger to make us all merry,
W:Or whiskey or brandy or cider or sherry.
W:Strong drink and its virtues our songs will extol,
W:So bring us a bottle (barrel, tank truck) and fill up our bowl.
W:
W:Come join in our Wassail and raise up your voice,
W:For now is the season to sing and rejoice,
W:And number your blessings, the great and the small;
W:Good friends and companions the greatest of all.
