1. A time like spring came and went
If only its days were made long

2. The child thinks it's the time of worry
Yet worries do not know children

3. O children of study, who wished for nights
Your nights wished for the impossible

4. Night after night after another
And the nights here pass quickly

5. We have experienced people in every state
And the child is in the best state

6. And if he persevered he did not stop ascending
And so was the crescent before a full moon

7. Except the lazy every day
Finds the whole day full of horrors

8. And sees books, notebooks and papers
And homework like burdens

9. And when he walks to the classroom
An arm he thinks is miles

10. Whoever perseveres in matters will be delighted
And healing is for those who stood up lazy

11. And the time of study is too short
For the idle to find room in it

12. O child do not waste time
You will not find its like again

13. Maybe you will get what is missed, alas
If you missed youth, you cannot regain it
