Brages B?ger Lyrics

[Music - Andersen - lyrics - Frederiksen]

[Brages Cup.
A song about a toast to a dead warrior, followed by a promise to deliver a great act of courage. The god Brage was the god of poetry and the b?ger (literally the beaker) drunk in his honour is the actual toast. The oath was called a Bragel?fte (Brage-oath) and is probably the origin of the English verb "to brag".]

Brages b?ger, mj?den sk?nkes,
Brages b?ger, Mj?lner skildres,
Brages b?ger, s?lvbelagte,
Brages b?ger, h?r min l?fte.

H?r! I hin gamles navn, under Mj?lners tegn,
Kruset l?ftes h?jt, br?dre I vor sal,
Hedengangne m?nd, mindes for deres d?d,
Drik et drag til dem, og din egen ?re!

Brages b?ger, h?r min l?fte.

H?r! I hin gamles navn, under Mj?lners tegn,
Kruset l?ftes h?jt, ed afl?gger jeg.
Vestp? s?ger jeg, sv?rdet synger g?vt,
Velstand lover jeg, til den, der f?lger.

Brages b?ger, mj?den sk?nkes,
Brages b?ger, Mj?lner skildres,
Brages b?ger, s?lvbelagte,
Brages b?ger, h?r min l?fte.

Hey!

Brages b?ger, mj?den sk?nkes,
Brages b?ger, Mj?lner skildres,
Brages b?ger, s?lvbelagte,
Brages b?ger, h?r min l?fte.
