First Fig

by Edna St. Vincent Millay

My candle burns at both ends;       It will not last the night; But ah, my foes, and oh, my friends --       It gives a lovely light!

[slobbering]

My candle burns at both ends; It will not last the night; But ah, my foes, and oh, my friends— It gives a lovely light.

- First Fig, Edna St. Vincent Millay

My candle burns at both ends;

It will not last the night;

But ah, my foes, and oh, my friends -

It gives a lovely light!

Edna St. Vincent Millay, First Fig

My candle burns at both ends;

It will not last the night;

But ah, my foes, and oh, my friends

It gives a lovely light!
