A Happy Song
Heaped sweets and a treasure
For a new sin to play with,
To pass a night and day with—
Heaped sweets for a pleasure.
For a new sin to play with,
To pass a night and day with—
Heaped sweets for a pleasure.
Who and who will win them?
Who will carry virtue's pall?
Of what use are sins at all
If someone does not sin them?
Who will carry virtue's pall?
Of what use are sins at all
If someone does not sin them?
Who will take the treasure?
Run and run on light-winged feet;
Who will buy my sweetest sweet
With a new found pleasure?
Run and run on light-winged feet;
Who will buy my sweetest sweet
With a new found pleasure?
