Let others chase the fleeting fame,
The wealth, the power, all in vain.
I seek the pleasure, here and now,
The warmth of sun upon my brow.
The taste of wine, the lover's kiss,
The laughter shared, the joy of bliss.
These are the treasures I embrace,
The moments fleeting, time and space.
Let others strive for goals so grand,
I revel in the shifting sand.
A fleeting pleasure, fleeting pain,
A tapestry of joy and bane.
For life is short, a passing show,
So let us feast, and let us flow.
Embrace the senses, feel the thrill,
And let the hedonist's heart fulfill.
No grand design, no lofty quest,
Just fleeting moments, truly blessed.
So raise a glass, and let us sing,
A toast to pleasure, joy to bring.
