Fountain of youth

You live on in me

Defining health and wealth

Against the sentence of old age.

Regardless of years lived

Beauty remains

Joy is constantly revived

In the sparkling eyes.

Curiosity and alertness

Are your mainstay

Old bones turned solid

The whole day.

Fountain of youth

You turn into the river of life

Washing over the uncouth

Turning all into grace!

Is pending death so forlorn

That the fountain dries out?

No way - it won't

It flows on, give a shout!

Fountain of youth

You will live on in me

Replenishing health and wealth

Despite signs of old age.
