SO BRIEF OUR DAYS
So b rief our days, so very b rief Like an autumn rose with its falling leaf, A mom ent's light, a glance o f sun And then our pilgrimage is done.
As the rainbow fades in the summer sky As the green grass flourishes to die This moment's triumph, too, will wane And none shall call it back again.
Write quickly, then, while the candle glows A little while and the book will close, Go carve your figure o f renown For soon you must lay your chisel down.
Use well this hour's joy, its g rie f-- For life is brief, so very brief!
