25
Oh Yellow Bittern, alas to see you stretched
26
And your bones there lying on bare flagstones
27
You did no harm at all in the country
28
And would just as prefer ditch water to wine
29
Had you only sent me a message
30
That you were in a quandry, in need of a drink
31
I would have broken the ice on the lake
32
To wet your beak and all the way down to your breast.
33
I'm not lamenting your ordinary birds
34
The cuckoo, the corncrake or the dappled heron
35
But the yellow bittern of the great heart
36
Who was just like me in many ways
37
He was always fond of the sup
38
And people say I'm fond of a drop myself
39
Whatever drink comes my way, it's down it goes
40
For fear that I might one day die of thirst!
41
And my darling asked me to give up the booze
42
Or I'd only be alive a short while more,
43
I told her straight out she was telling a lie
44
And that the drink extended my life's span.
45
Don't you see that bird with the smooth neck
46
That only a while ago perished with the thirst?
47
Ah, my pleasant people, wet your whistles
48
Because after death ye won't get a drop!
