Oh, cruel life!
Why dost thou vexeth me so?
When, like a thief did you steal my show?
All that is left is ribboned and shred.

Oh, young flower!
What joy your colors bringeth to me!
A million, or one, such glory to see!
Blessed am I to share your sweet sigh.

Oh, cruel age!
You viscous thing stealing my moments away.
Like all flowers, my colors doth fade.
So many places, now never to see.

Oh, beauteous earth!
When can I lay these burdens to rest?
These moments, ever you test.
Endless trials to fail or pass.
