~ Wo edlen Stoff man schenkt ~ | |
When everything seems alright, don't try to alter destiny because it will all turn out fine is the meaning of this verse on a relief stein from ca. 1900. | |
Wo edlen Stoff man schenkt, trinke mit freuden, halt dich bescheiden, hin wird das Boot gelenkt. |
Where noble things are given, drink with joy, don't (try) to direct, (because) the boat will be steered on course. |
