¶Lyrics / Text

In an harbour grene aslepe whereas I lay The byrdes sang swete in the middes of the day: I dreamèd fast of mirth and play. In youth is pleasure, in youth is pleasure. Me-thought I walkèd still to and fro, And from her company I could not go, But when I wakèd it was not so. In youth is pleasure, in youth is pleasure. Therefore my heart is surely pyght Of her alone to have a sight Which is my joy and hearte's delight. In youth is pleasure, in youth is pleasure. from ''An Enterlude called Lusty Juventus'' (1565)
