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!
