理查德·亨利·斯托达德
There are gains for all our losses.
There are balms for all our pain:
But when youth, the dream, departs
It takes something from our hearts,
And it never comes again.
We are stronger, and are better,
Under manhoods sterner reign:
Still we feel that something sweet
Followed youth, with flying feet,
And will never come again.
Something beautiful is vanished,
And we sigh for it in vain;
We behold it everywhere,
On the earth, and in the air,
But it never comes again!
付出必定得到补偿,
良药总能医治创伤:
青春飞逝永不复返,
好梦难寻内心空荡。
步入成年更加坚强,
若有所失难追以往;
美妙年华无踪无影,
转瞬即逝一片渺茫。
少年魅力意气昂扬,
随处可见人间天上;
青春一去永不复返,
枉自嘆息空留惆怅。
