Z 240 A health to the nut brown lass. [Italian translation]
A Health, a health to the Nut-brown Lass
with the Hazel Eyes,
She that has good Eyes has also good Thighs,
let it pays, let it pays.
As much to the livelier Gray,
They're as good by night as day,
She that has good Eyes has also good Thighs,
Drink away, drink away.
I'll pledge, Sir, I'll pledge,
What ho some wine, here some wine to mine,
And to thine, to thine, to thine,
And to mine the Colours are Divine.
But Oh, the black eyes,
the black give me as much again,
And let it be Sack.(1)
She that has good Eyes has also good Thighs,
And a better knack.
(1) Sach è un vino bianco delle Canarie.
