Alfredo
Let’s
drink from the joyous chalice
Where beauty flowers…
Let the fleeting hour
To pleasure’s intoxication yield.
Let’s drink
To love’s sweet tremors –
To those eyes
That pierce the heart.
Let’s drink to love – to wine
That warms our kisses.
Violetta
With
you I would share
My days of happiness;
Everything is folly in this world
That does not give us pleasure.
Let us enjoy life,
For the pleasures of love are swift and fleeting
As a flower that lives and dies
And can be enjoyed no more.
Let’s take our pleasure!
While its ardent,
Brilliant summons lures us on.
