The Number of My Days
So very short my life does span, Along with every mortal man, Across tomorrow’s future vast – Across all history and past. Just like a blossom’s fragile frame, Just like a fire’s fickle flame, Like starlight’s beauty fades with dawn, So will my days on earth be gone. Though oh…
