Kurt Weill
Love Is My Enemy
[CELLINI]
Love is my enemy
My beloved enemy
And you, my love, are love
Work is my destiny
My relentless destiny
Urging me onward, ever onward
Love and life are fleeting
A wonderful but momentary song
While to the ages my work and I belong

Love is my enemy
My beloved enemy
And you, my love, are love

[ANGELA]
Love is my destiny
Work is my enemy
Urging you onward, ever onward

[CELLINI]
Love and life are fleeting
A wonderful, but momentary song
While to the ages my work and I belong

[CELLINI & ANGELA]
Love is my /your enemy
My / Your beloved enemy
[ANGELA]
My love, if love can cast no spell
Farewell, my love

[CELLINI]
Farewell, my love

[CELLINI & ANGELA]
Farewell

[DUCHESS, spoken]
My poor child, he isn't worth one of your tears.
