Original text and translations
English text
The thirsty Vampires, some believe,
Their Graves can pierce and Coffins leave,
To suck poor Mortals dry.
If I’ve the Luck to drink when dead,
My Liquor shan’t be Blood tho’ red.
The Juice of Grapes best suits to me,
To some huge Cask of Wine I’ll be,
I’ll be a Vampire when I dye.
