BLUE EYED MARY [2]. AKA - "Herr Bruder, nimm das Gläschen." English, American; Air and Jig. A Major (Hardings): C Major (Howe). Standard tuning (fiddle). AABB. The tune as published by Boston music publisher Elias Howe is an adaptation (and simplification) of the German song air "Herr Bruder, nimm das Gläschen," printed in 1810 in Auswahl froher Gesänge, 1810.. The first stanza goes:

Herr Bruder, nimm das Gläschen
und trink es fröhlich aus,
und wirbelts dir im Näschen,
so führ' ich dich nach Haus.
Bedenk, es ist ja morgen
schon alles wieder gut;-
der Wein vertreibt die Sorgen
und schafft uns frohen Mut.
Hallo, hallo, hallo, hallo, hallo,
bei uns geht's immer so!
