The bridegroom is so proud
He cries his joy, his voice is loud,
There's no one like his bride
She's a beauty dressed in light.
Lads and lassies, come to dance,
Lai, la, lai, la, la, lai,
Sing along, just take your chance,
Lai, la, lai, la, la, lai.
Even if a hole we make
All around the wedding-cake
Dancing slowly dancing fast
Our joy forever last!
By allmighty God groom's parents
Bring him wealth and bring him balance
While the bride's ones bring her beauty
Kindness, grace and purity.
