The breezing leaves are gone, the weather's cold, The summer and spring went to other places, The lovely sun through clouds shines not as gold, No more a comely sheen upon the faces. The nightingale stops with praising the rose, The parrot stops repeating other songs, The smiling buds are coming to a close, Talking about the colds does fill the tongues. And so, I only see of you a lonely stem, Who cannot be adorned to shine again With a priceless gift, ring or precious gem, As in past days, to make you beauty reign. The fading of beauty, what you concealed, Our nature tells about, the air revealed.
