Titel - Take a pair of sparkling eyes

Liedtext

Take a pair of sparkling eyes,
Hidden, ever and anon,
In a merciful eclipse -
Do not heed their mild surprise -
Having passed the Rubicon.
Take a pair of rosy lips;
Take a figure trimly planned -
Such as admiration whets
(Be particular in this);
Take a tender little hand,
Fringed with dainty fingerettes,
Press it, press it - in parenthesis; -
Take all these, you lucky man,
Take all these, you lucky man -
Take and keep them, if you can, if you can!
Take all these, you lucky man -
Take and keep them, if you can, if you can!

Take a pretty little cot -
Quite a miniature affair -
Hung about with trellised vine,
Furnish it upon the spot
With the treasures rich and rare
I've endeavoured to define.
Live to love and love to live -
You will ripen at your ease,
Growing on the sunny side -
Fate has nothing more to give.
You're a dainty man to please
If you are not satisfied, not satisfied.
Take my counsel, happy man,
Take my counsel, happy man:
Act upon it, if you can, if you can!
Take my counsel, happy man:
Act upon it, if you can, if you can!
