Toto.
- Ah! ah!
- Banish sorrow
- Till tomorrow,
- Let me not rejoice alone;
- Rob from pleasure all his treasure,
- For my love is all my own.
- Banish reason for a season,
- Place King Folly on his throne,
- Fairest flowers
- Deck the hours,
- For my love is all my own.
- Banish sorrow,
- Banish sorrow till tomorrow,
- Banish sorrow,
- For my love is all my own,
- Banish sorrow for a season,
- Place King Folly on his throne,
- Ah, ah, ah.
- Banish sorrow
- Banish sorrow
- Till tomorrow,
- Her true love is all her own,
- Rob from pleasure all its treasure,
- For her true love is all her own!
- Till tomorrow,
- Ah!
- Men tell of vows that droop and perish,
- Ere yet the spring of life is past;
- Within my heart thy love I'll cherish:
- While it beats that love will last.
- Ah!
- That love shall last!
- That love, that love, shall last,
- Ah!
- Men tell of vows that droop and perish,
- Banish sorrow
- Till tomorrow,
- Her true love is all her own,
- Rob from pleasure all his treasure,
- For her true love is all her own!
- Till tomorrow,
- Ah! ah! all my own, all my own,
- My true love is all my own!

They dance off, leaving TOTO and DORO.
