The charm of Autumn's passingShall unshake the sadness of its death;To you who built this beauty,These, the crumbling leaves and fields are left.
A flower, late in blooming,Reveals its petals pure as waxen snow;Among the gay leaves seeming,A little touch of Heaven on earth below.
And you stand by in wonder,Lost within this mightly hymn of rest;This brilliant Autumn pageantNumbs your sorrow with forgetfulness.
