(English version)
Gather, come gather 'round me,
A joyous sound we will make today
Let us be gay!
Lift up your happy voices
The crowd rejoices; come hear me say
Let us be gay
Hear now the happy throng
Burst forth in festive song
Come, toss your cares away,
Sing, let us be gay!
Think what tomorrow brings
While all the nation sings
Now there's a brighter day
Come, let us be gay!
Hope--- and--- faith- sus- tained- us-,
Ever the hope for our returning
Deep in the heart of each man burning
Never a doubt, we did not waver;
Never a fear, we did not quaver
Now it is real, now is the day,
Come on and let us be gay
Gather, come gather 'round me,
A joyous sound we will make today
Let us be gay!
Lift up your happy voices
The crowd rejoices; come hear me say
Let us be gay!!!!
