Beat the drum and do not fear, And kiss the maiden bringing cheer!
This is the knowledge deep and true, The book’s great wisdom brought to you. Rouse the sleepers with your sound, Drum with youth, the call profound! March ahead, the beat your guide, This is the science magnified.

It’s Hegel’s thought, a lofty creed, The book’s true meaning you now read.
I grasp it well, both wise and keen, For I’m a drummer proud and serene.

Heinrich Heine
