(Nino Rota - Eugene Walter, W.Shakespeare)

What is a youth?
Impetuous fire.
What is a maid?
Ice and desire.
The world wags on

rose will bloom,
it then will fade
So does a youth.
So does the fairest maid.
 [bad word] a time when one sweet smile
Has its season for awhile
Then Love`s in love with me

Some may think only to marry.
Others will tease and tarry.
Mine is the very best parry,
Cupid [bad word] us all.

Caper the caper; sing me the song
Death [bad word] soon to hush us along
Sweeter than honey and bitter as gall,
Love is a task and it never will pall.
Sweeter than honey and bitter as gall,
Cupid [bad word] us all.

rose will bloom, it then will fade.
So does a youth.
So does the fairest maid
