"THREE CHEERS FOR THE EMPEROR."
(Recommended for translation and use in the German Reichstag.)
For he's a jolly good fellow,
And so say all of us.
But "hochs" at all seasons to bellow
Is sycophant folly and fuss.
With a hip, hip, hip hooray,
For that capital fellow, our Kaiser!
If he'll let our cheers come in spontaneous way
As loyal we'll be, and he wiser.
