Love Is Pleasing [Russian translation]
Love Is Pleasing [Russian translation]
I wish, I wish, I wish in vain
I wish I was a youth again
But a youth again I can never be
Till apples grow on an ivy tree
I left me father, I left me mother
I left all my sisters and brothers too
I left all my friends and my own relations
I left them all for to follow you
And love is pleasing and love is teasing
And love is a pleasure when first it's new
But as it grows older the love grows colder
And it fades away like the morning dew
And the sweetest apple is the soonest rotten
And the hottest love is the soonest cold
And what can't be cured love must be endured love
But my own true love I will never behold
For love and porter makes a young man older
And love and whiskey makes him old and grey
And what can't be cured love has to be endured love
And now I am bound for America
Oh, love is pleasing and love is teasing
And love is a pleasure when first it's new
And as it grows older the love grows colder
And it fades away like the morning dew
