Great Is Rose Wine

(every line is sung twice)

Great is rose wine
Harvested in late autumn
Some on frost, some on snow
A lot I drink and I don't get drunk

I swore not drink again
But I cannot refrain
Great is wine, and well I like it
Don't know what I'm going to do to that vine

Beloved wine, of a rare fruit
Climbs to the head without a ladder
Beloved wine of green grapes
Makes the man so that you won't see him

Great is wine and tasteful as well
When you drink it with handsome people
But if you drink it with ugly people
The wine gets stuck in your throat
