NINON! QUE FAIS-TU DE LA VIW?, by                     Poet's Biography
First Line: What are you making out of life
Last Line: When you grow old, ninon!
Subject(s): Aging; Life; Youth


WHAT are you making out of life,
Ninon, Ninon?
A roaring farce and wild,
A play for the gutter's child,
With dancing, too, Ninon!

What are you making out of life,
Ninon, Ninon?
A tragedy will be your mirth,
The saddest tragedy on earth,
When you grow old, Ninon!
