Lasst uns froh und munter sein

Let's be happy and cheerful,
And truly rejoice from the heart! (And find joy in the Lord).

Chorus:
Fun, fun, tra-la-la-la,
Soon it's St. Nicholas Eve,
Soon it's St. Nicholas Eve!

Then I'll set the plate out,
Nick will surely leave something there.
Chorus

When I sleep, I dream:
Now Nick brings something for me.
Chorus

When I get up,
I run quickly to the plate.
Chorus

Nick is a good man,
Whom we can't thank enough.
Chorus

Soon our school will be out,
Then we'll happily head home.
Chorus

When the plate's on the table,
I'll sing once more, happy and fresh:
