Alas, that Spring should vanish with the Rose!

That Youth's sweet-scented Manuscript should close!

Ah, Moon of my Delight who know'st no wane, The Moon of Heav'n is rising once again:

The Nightingale that in the Branches sang, Ah, whence, and whither flown again, who knows!

How oft hereafter rising shall she look Through this same Garden after us — in vain!
