This western land of milk and honey,

For one that flows with Lager Bier.

Go, flaxen-haired and blue-eyed maiden,

My German Hebe! hasten through

Yon smoke-cloud, and return thou laden

With bread and cheese and bier for two.

Limburger suits this bearded fellow;

His brow is high, his taste severe:

But I’m for Schweitzer, mild and yellow,

To eat with bread and Lager Bier.
