IN AUTUMN
.
I know there are those who ask: Why does he not
sing with the same wild harmonies as before?
But they have not seen the labours of an hour
the work of a minute, the prodigies of a year.
.
I am an aged tree that, when I was growing
uttered a vague, sweet sound when the breeze caressed me.
The time for youthful smiles has now passed by:
now, let the hurricane swirl my heart to song
.
