What Is A Youth? - Jonas Kaufmann/Miloš Karadaglić
Lyrics by：Eugene Walter
Composed by：Nino Rota
Arranged by：Matthias Spindler
Produced by：Jakob Händel
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 sweet smile
Has it's seasons 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 he rules us all
Caper the caper sing me a 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
A rose will bloom
It then will fade
So does a youth
So does the fairest maid
