¶Liedtext

Amo, amas, I love a lass As a cedar tall and slender; Sweet cowslip's grace is her nom'tive case, And she's of the feminine gender. Rorum corum sunt divorum, Harum scarum divo; Tag rag merry derry, periwig and hatband, Hic hoc horum genitivo. Can I decline a nymph divine, Her voice as a flute is dulcis; Her oculus bright, her manus white, And soft when I tacto her pulse is. Rorum corum sunt divorum, Harum scarum divo; Tag rag merry derry, periwig and hatband, Hic hoc horum genitivo. O how bella my puella I'll kiss sæcula sæculorum; If I've luck, sir, she's my uxor, O dies benedictorum. Rorum corum sunt divorum, Harum scarum divo; Tag rag merry derry, periwig and hatband, Hic hoc horum genitivo.
