Schenk Nochmal Ein Lyrics in English by In Extremo

Schenk is the imperative form of the verb schenken, which means "to give" or "to pour". While "to give" is common, its use as "to pour" in the context of a drinking song makes it particularly interesting and relevant.

In "Schenk nochmal ein," it directly translates to "Pour another one," setting the scene for a lively, communal atmosphere often found in German folk or rock music. This specific usage is a great way to learn a less common, yet very idiomatic, application of a versatile German verb.
