Time is my early friend, the best friend too
This lovely world that has brought me into.
That has showed me the beauty of the sea
Lakes, rocks , sky , moon and also the tree. ...

All that I touched turned into gold. Alas!

Sung by sweet children and by hoary men.
But ah! the hurts - the hurts that come with fame.
