[Кіріспе] Raise the latch and clear the floor, Someone's knocking at the door! [Куплет 1] Mara brought a basket, tom forgot his hat, Finn is telling stories, none of them are facts. Peggy taps a spoon against a wooden chair, When the fiddle catches fire, there's dancing everywhere. [Қайырма] Hey now, pass the cup around, Stamp your heels upon the ground! Laugh until the rafters ring, Come along and dance and sing! [Куплет 2] Old red's got a harmonica tucked inside his coat, He plays three little notes and makes the whole room float. The fiddle answers brightly from beside the open grate, Then nellie spins beneath the beam and nearly loses fate. [Қайырма] Hey now, pass the cup around, Stamp your heels upon the ground! Laugh until the rafters ring, Come along and dance and sing! [Көпір] Clap once, clap twice, hold your neighbor's hand, Turn to the left and let the whole room stand! Fiddle says, "follow!" harmonica says, "go!" Whoops from the corner—now everybody knows! [Instrumental break] [Қайырма] Hey now, pass the cup around, Stamp your heels upon the ground! Laugh until the rafters ring, Come along and dance and sing! [Аутро] When the candle bends and the last boots slow, We'll save one tune for the road back home. Raise one cheer before we part— Tavern laughter warms the heart!
