Gar fröhlich zu singen, so heben wir an. Was wollt ihr uns bringen zum neuen Jahr? Viel Freude und Frohsinn und Glück immerdar. |
Quite happy to sing, so lift up your voice. What will you bring us for the New Year? Much joy and gladness and luck always. |

This song is performed at New Year as a call-and-answer song. Strolling singers seranade a house with the first line, the residents answer with the second line, and the singers respond with the last line. Usually the singers are rewarded with cookies and drinks. |
