YUM.: Brightly dawns our wedding day;
ALL: Joyous hour, we give thee greeting!
Whither, whither art thou fleeting?
Fickle moment, prithee stay!
Fickle moment, prithee stay!
PISH.: What though mortal joys be hollow?
PITTI: Pleasures come, if sorrows follow;

ALL: Though the tocsin sound, ere long,
YUM.: Though the tocsin sound, ere long,
Though the tocsin sound, ere long,
ALL: Ding dong! Ding dong!
Yet until the shadows fall
Over one and over all,

YUM.: Sing a merry madrigal,
ALL: Sing a merry madrigal,
Sing a merry madrigal:

Fa la,
Fa la,
Fa la la la la,
Fa la la la la,
Fa la la la la,
Fa la la la la la la la la,
Fa la la la,
Fa la,
Fa la la la,
Fa la,
Fa la la,
Fa la la,
Fa la la.

YUM.: Let us dry the ready tear,
ALL: Though the hours are surely creeping,
Little need for woeful weeping,
Till the sad sundown is near,
Till the sad sundown is near.

PISH: All must sip the cup of sorrow,
PITTI: I today, and thou tomorrow.

ALL: This the close of ev'ry song,
YUM.: This the close of ev'ry song,
This the close of ev'ry song,
ALL: Ding dong! Ding dong!
What though solemn shadows fall,
Sooner, later, over all,

YUM.: Sing a merry madrigal,
ALL: Sing a merry madrigal,
Sing a merry madrigal:

Fa la,
Fa la,
Fa la la la la,
Fa la la la la,
Fa la la la la,
Fa la la la la la la la la,
Fa la la la,
Fa la,
Fa la la la,
Fa la,
Fa la la,
Fa la la,
Fa la la.
