Love is a bable,
No man is able
To say 'tis this or 'tis that;
So full of passions
Of sundry fashions,
'Tis like I cannot tell what.


{{Text|English}}
Love is a fellow
 
Clad oft in yellow,
::Love is a bable,
The canker-worm of the mind,
::No man is able
A privy mischief,
::To say 'tis this or 'tis that;
And such a sly thief
::So full of passions
No man knows which way to find.
::Of sundry fashions,
::'Tis like I cannot tell what.
<br>
 
::Love is a fellow
::Clad oft in yellow,
::The canker-worm of the mind,
::A privy mischief,
::And such a sly thief
::No man knows which way to find.
<br>
 
::Love's fair in cradle,
::Foul in fable,
::'Tis either too cold or too hot;
::An arrant liar,
::Fed by desire,
::It is and yet it is not.
<br>
::Love is a wonder
::That's here and yonder,
::As common to one as to moe;
::A monstrous cheater,
::Ev'ry man's debtor;
::Hang him and so let him go.
<br>


:''<b>Lyrics: (Anonymous)''</b>
Love's fair in cradle,
<br>
Foul in fable,
'Tis either too cold or too hot;
An arrant liar,
Fed by desire,
It is and yet it is not.


Love is a wonder
That's here and yonder,
As common to one as to moe;
A monstrous cheater,
Ev'ry man's debtor;
Hang him and so let him go.}}

Love is a bable,
No man is able
To say 'tis this or 'tis that;
So full of passions
Of sundry fashions,
'Tis like I cannot tell what.

Love is a fellow
Clad oft in yellow,
The canker-worm of the mind,
A privy mischief,
And such a sly thief
No man knows which way to find.

Love's fair in cradle,
Foul in fable,
'Tis either too cold or too hot;
An arrant liar,
Fed by desire,
It is and yet it is not.

Love is a wonder
That's here and yonder,
As common to one as to moe;
A monstrous cheater,
Ev'ry man's debtor;
Hang him and so let him go.
