Now as I’m settled so old and outired The things I did — the words I said
And no one’s here to tell about my live Though time passed by — I can’t
I’ll sing this lonely tune again and In hopeless times — alone I’ve cried
Forget again
To bear the echos in my mind. Time, time — pass me by!

A youngster’s guilt once taken upon The things I did — the words I said
The strengthening shoulders of a Though time passed by — I can’t forget
Growing man
The weakness age has rolled in ’em pines In hopeless times — alone I’ve cried
Has not reduced the burdens I bear. Time, time — pass me by!

Alone I stood amidst the river
That flooded lightness onto my soul
As a simple tune so true in its beauty
Was swirling across the glitters of light.

And as my eyes focused upon
A distant glitter amidst the woods
The sudden ungreening of the trees
Unvailed a singing maiden’s outstanding line.

«Step forward to the shimmering one! The things I did — the words I said
Be kind to me my blistered feet! Though time passed by — I can’t forget
Obey! My swollen tongue for once In hopeless times — alone I’ve cried
In my life I have to — to — to — … Time, time — pass me by!

But not I moved for all my might
The maiden smiled and walked on by.
No scream, no words — just the pain
That echos on and on again.

Since then I never saw again
The skirts of springtime wandering by.
For all the colours of the world
Look dim compared to what I saw that day.
