Time passes by | <poem>Time passes by | ||
Into here its silent cry | |||
Fled far below | |||
Our sands are running slow | |||
Night after night | Night after night | ||
Watching the days go by | Watching the days go by | ||
Sand turned to stone | |||
The centuries alone | |||
White of my eye | |||
Sees not what | Sees not what does rely | ||
Silenced again | |||
Knows not what slips away | Knows not what slips away | ||
Line after line | |||
Verses misplaced by time | Verses misplaced by time | ||
Let them remain | Let them remain | ||
Nor rearrange | |||
Father, | Father, father, father | ||
What will I do? | |||
Can you tell, can you tell the time? | Can you tell, can you tell the time? | ||
| Line 58: | Line 68: | ||
Is there any time for me to find? | Is there any time for me to find? | ||
Father, | Father, father, father | ||
What will I do? | |||
Regret, father clock | |||
It reads four seconds fast | |||
But still, I've enough time to ??? | But still, I've enough time to ??? | ||
??? | ??? the past | ||
Many revolutions | Many revolutions after | ||
Your time is up</poem> | |||
