The passion of youth,
The loneliness of the years,
Serious and thoughtful teachings,
The vicissitudes of ambition.
Whose tenderness warms whose heart?
Whose light illuminates whose sorrow?
Whose dream does glory and wealth occupy?
Whose glory is brought about by success and fame?
Who says time flies like water?
Who is singing your and my sorrow?
In these lonely years,
How should I grieve?
Youth has endless sadness.
