Original text and translations
- Once there were flowers, now they are gone
- Petal and blossom scorched by the sun
- Summer is over, winter is come
- Once there were flowers, now they are gone.
- Once there was music, now it is gone
- Silent the voice which once rose in song.
- Silent the singer, silent the song
- Once there was music, now it is gone.
- Once there were leaves, but now they are gone
- Strength will remain, though stripped to the bone.
- There will be a new song: how can morning bring a light?
- Love's sacrifice, and dawn breaks the night.
- Where is the song that gave such sweet bliss?
- Where is the song that gave such as this?
- Melody within us brings forth the song:
- Hope is renewed; Love's music lives on.
