Don't Ask Me About My Age!

entry picture

 

Don’t ask me about my age!

I always feel younger.

If to count by happiness

I still feel a hunger.

 

Don’t ask me about my age!

At any rate I am older.

If to count the years by losses

I am the best holder.

 

Don’t ask me about my age!

I can’t tell you exactly.

Sometimes I feel like a girl,

Insist on my wishes stoutly.

 

Don’t ask me about my age!

I will never feel old.

I would  come on any stage,

For hours the audience  hold.

 

Don’t ask me about my age!

I am always young.

My years is my luggage

With the songs I have sung.

 

Don't ask about my age!

I am still on the stage,
