Two Lives |
| When the time of youth has ended |
| And the good old days are gone |
| All that nature has intended |
| Will assuredly transpire |
| And the fairest and the holiest |
| The fairest and the holiest |
| Will fall into the fire |
| While the barest and the hollowest |
| The barest and the hollowest |
| Will fall into your arms |
| Two lives are not granted to you |
| Two fortunes are not given, either |
| The truth is that out of the two |
| You end up with one thing, or neither |
| Who answers the heavenly call? |
| The trumpet’s profound salutation? |
| For fate doesn’t smile upon all |
| Just the fortunate find their relation |
| Be not miserly with kindness |
| Neither greedy with your grace |
| Let not augury nor blindness |
| Human intimacy sever |
| You will forfeit every morsel |
| Yes, you’ll forfeit every morsel |
| In this pitiless endeavor |
| And your bitterness and trouble |
| Yes, your bitterness and trouble |
| Will be written on your face |
| Two lives are not granted to you |
| Two fortunes are not given, either |
| The truth is that out of the two |
| You end up with one thing, or neither |
| Who answers the heavenly call? |
| The trumpet’s profound salutation? |
| For fate doesn’t smile upon all |
| Just the fortunate find their relation |
| It’s a pity youth is gone |
| It’s a pity time is spent |
| You could fit it all into your palm |
| There’s only bruises in your spirit |
| And the center of the mystery |
| The center of the mystery |
| You never will get near it |
| It’s a dark and narrow hallway |
| Yes, a dark and narrow hallway |
| Leading straight down to the end |
