1. Time has taken from you what it loaned,
And clouded your life after serenity.

2. So do not deny that time
Is pledged to scatter what it brought together.

3. And when it saw you with few worries,
Much passion, living in comfort,

4. It insisted on startling you
And set out to target you.

5. It wrongs a person in its rule,
But perhaps it has also been fair.
