歌詞
What is a youth? Impetuous fire
青春是什麼?激烈燃燒的火,
What is a maid? Ice and desire
少女是什麼?冰霜和欲望的結合,
The world wags on
年華如此遷移下去。
A rose will bloom, it then will fade
玫瑰會盛開,然後會凋萎,
So does a youth, so does the fairest maid
青春也是,最美的少女亦復如此。
Comes a time when one's sweet smile
當那時,臉上是甜美的微笑,
Has its season for a while
那就是愛的季節,
Then love's in love with me
我心裡充滿了依戀。
Some may think only to marry
有人只想到結婚,
Others will tease and tarry
有的人卻不屑且猶豫,
Mine is the very best parry
我的藉口最是高超:
Cupid he rules us all
邱比特牽著我們的鼻子走。
Caper the caper, sing me the song
儘管嬉戲去吧,並為我唱一首歌,
Death will come soon to hush us along
死神不久將來臨,叫我們都閉住嘴,
Sweeter than honey and bitter as gall
比蜜還甜,比膽還苦,
Love is a past time and never will pall
愛雖磨人,卻永不走味,
Sweeter than honey and bitter as gall
比蜜還甜,比膽還苦,
Cupid he rules us all
邱比特牽著我們的鼻子走。
A rose will bloom, it then will fade
玫瑰會盛開,很快就會凋謝,
So does a youth, so does the fairest maid
青春如此,美麗的少女亦如此。
