Youth

Topics: classic

Mood of youth,          Mood of youth,     Eagle-like must seek the blue,     Dauntlessly its course pursue,     All the mountain-heights must view.          Blood of youth,          Blood of youth,     Steam-like puts full-speed to sea,     E'en though storm and ice there be,     Makes its way and romps in glee.          Dream of youth,          Dream of youth,     Rogue-like stealing sets its snare     In the maiden's morning-prayer;     All the springtime, fragrant, glowing,     In its airy waves is flowing.          Joy of youth,          Joy of youth,     Waterfall-like foams in truth,     Laughing, rainbow-gifts forth flashing,     Even while to death 't is dashing.          Joy of youth,          Dream of youth,          Blood of youth,          Mood of youth,     Clothe the world with colors golden,     Singing songs that never olden.
