What Is a Youth

作詞：Nino Rota, Eugene Walter
作曲：Nino Rota, Eugene Walter
編曲：Pessi Levanto

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 its season for a while
Then love's in love with me.

Some they think only to marry, Others will tease and tarry,
Mine is the very best parry. Cupid he rules us all.
Caper the cape, but 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

少年為何？不滅之火
少女為何？冰冷與慾望
世界繼續擺動

一朵玫瑰會盛開
然後凋零
如同少年
如同最令人屏息的少女

會有一個時刻，
一個甜美的笑顏有它短暫的季節
我也將愛上愛情

某些人只望著姻緣，有些擇不願安居
我的防衛是最好的，愛神統治了我們每一個人
戲弄吧！但還是唱歌給我
死亡並不等人
比蜂蜜還甜，比膽汁還苦
愛是永不疲乏的事情
比蜂蜜還甜，比膽汁還苦
愛神統治了我們每一個人
