歌词
作词 : Eugene Walter
作曲 : Nino Rota
What is a youth? Impetuous fire
What is a maid? Ice and desire
The world wags on
A rose will bloom, it then will fade
So does a youth, so does the fairest maid
Comes a time when one's sweet smile
Has its season for a while
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 he rules us all
Caper the caper, sing me the song
Death will come soon to hush us along
Sweeter than honey and bitter as gall
Love is a pastime that never will pall
Sweeter than honey and bitter as gall
Cupid he rules us all
A rose will bloom, it then will fade
So does a youth, so does the fairest maid
