(Melody: Where the North Sea waves)
Silver wedding anniversary is today and we celebrate that,
Let the glasses clink, that's how we sing.
Sing at the top of your lungs, sing with us, folks,
because we want to celebrate our silver wedding anniversary today!
[Surname], you have already experienced many a storm,
Today we're going to celebrate, we're going to shake the earth.
Today we want to drink to what once was,
Health, happiness, the coming years shall bring.
Refrain:
Let the glasses clink, show your joy,
For we want to celebrate our silver wedding anniversary today!
You have anniversary and so we say:
Cheers, dear [WOMAN], we're all here,
Here's to you both, and twenty-five years..,
fifty it shall be, that would be wonderful:
Refrain:
Let the glasses clink, show your joy,
For we're celebrating our silver wedding anniversary today!
[WOMAN] and [MAN], you are our best treasure,
Give us a cold beer and a good schnapps too.
Champagne and also liqueur we drink today:
You shall live long! Yes, that's what we wish.
Refrain:
Let the glasses clink, show your joy,
because we want to celebrate our silver wedding anniversary today!
