what is youth歌词

What is a youth? Impetuous fire

青春是什麼？激烈燃烧的火，

What is a maid? Ice and desire

少女是什麼？冰霜和欲望的结合，

The world wags on

年华如此迁移下去。

A rose will bloom, it then will fade

玫瑰会盛开，然后会凋萎，

So does a youth, so does the fairest maid

青春也是，最美的少女亦复如此。

Comes a time when one's sweet smile

当那时，脸上是甜美的微笑，

Has its season for a while

那就是爱的季节，

Then love's in love with me

我心里充满了依恋。

Some may think only to marry

有人只想到结婚，

Others will tease and tarry

有的人却不屑且犹豫，

Mine is the very best parry

我的藉口最是高超：

Cupid he rules us all

邱比特牵著我们的鼻子走。

Caper the caper, sing me the song

尽管嬉戏去吧，并为我唱一首歌，

Death will come soon to hush us along

死神不久将来临，叫我们都闭住嘴，

Sweeter than honey and bitter as gall

比蜜还甜，比胆还苦，

Love is a past time and never will pall

爱虽磨人，却永不走味，

Sweeter than honey and bitter as gall

比蜜还甜，比胆还苦，

Cupid he rules us all

邱比特牵著我们的鼻子走。

A rose will bloom, it then will fade

玫瑰会盛开，很快就会凋谢，

So does a youth, so does the fairest maid

青春如此，美丽的少女亦如此。
