LYRICS:
Strike the viol.
Touch the lute.
Wake the harp
And inspire the flute.
Sing your patronesse's praise.
Sing in cheerful and harmonious lays.
Strike the viol.
Touch the lute.
Wake the harp
And inspire the flute.
Translation:
Bestrijk de viool.
Sla de luit aan.
Maak de harp wakker
en inspireer de fluit.
Zing tot eer van je patronesse.
Zing vrolijke en harmonieuze leisen.
Bestrijk de viool.
Sla de luit aan.
Maak de harp wakker
en inspireer de fluit.
