1. Leave youth to its men,
And take off the clothes of shame.

2. Yes, I have grown old, yet
Those qualities remain.

3. From my shoulders exudes
The scent of youth as it was.

4. And my pliant heart leans
Towards youth, its edges soft.

5. In it remains from the ancient
Ecstasy a remnant in the corner.

6. Yearning is a burning fire,
And indeed the yearning within me has increased.
