to wine and beauty - roger quilter lyrics

Loading...

vulcan provide me such a cup
as nestor used of old;
try all your art to trim it up
and damask it round with gold

carve me thereon a curling vine
a lovely girl and boy:
their limbs in am’rous folds intwine
the type of future joy

make it so large, when fill’d with sack
up to the swelling brim
that toasts in that delicious lake
like ships at sea may swim

bacchus and venus my guardians are
let wine and beauty reign!
with wine we’ll drive away all care
and then to love again

- roger quilter lyrics
