Drei Brüder [English translation]

[Intro]

Brothers, pour [it]

[Verse 1]

Three brothers went for a walk

And as the evening came

The desire

for wine and cold play was burning1

The youngest of the three brothers

Inquires, "Is it for money?"

The third gives the answer

"We play for the world

[We] play for the world"

[Refrain]

Brothers, pour it (brothers, pour it)

For tonight we shall once again unite

Raise a thousand heavy mugs

To love, to life

And sing a thousand old songs

That ring out for the last time

This night in these hallowed halls

[Verse 2]

First plays the lady

Laughing brightly on the table

"So hear my name

Hurray, I'm Fortune"

Second plays the king

And stabs the lady's heart

"I care little for fortune

Well now, I am the Pain

Yes, I am the Pain"

[Refrain]

Brothers, pour it (brothers, pour it)

For tonight we shall once again unite

Raise a thousand heavy mugs

To love, to life

And sing a thousand old songs

That ring out for the last time

This night in these hallowed halls

[Post-refrain]

Hey

Hey

Hey

Hey

Hey

Hey, hey, hey

[Verse 3]

The third one just sneakily

laughed to himself

Said: "Brothers, ah, brothers

What jokes you make

I'll free the world from suffering

From pain and misery too

I'll take you both

Trump suit, I am Death

Trump suit, I am Death"

[Refrain]

Brothers, pour it (brothers, pour it)

For tonight we shall once again unite

Raise a thousand heavy mugs

To love, to life

And sing a thousand old songs

That ring out for the last time

This night in these hallowed halls

Sisters, pour it (Sisters, pour it)

For tonight we shall once again unite

Raise a thousand heavy mugs

To love, to life

And sing a thousand old songs

That ring out for the last time

This night in these hallowed

This night in these hallowed halls

1. In this context, I'd bet it refers to playing a card game. However there's this thread about 'playing a song cold': here. I don't know if it's musical slang or a German idiom, and can't find more information.
