Drinking Song - by W. B. Yeats

















Drinking Song
---------
William Butler Yeats (1865-1939)


Wine comes in at the mouth
And love comes in at the eye;
That's all we shall know for truth
Before we grow old and die.
I lift the glass to my mouth,
I look at you, and I sigh.

"To have respect for ourselves guides our morals; and to have a deference for others governs our manners."
