A young Maiden's sorrow...

A chance for love was what she yearned.

Now it's gone... gone forever.

Her sweet regard was not returned.

Now it's gone. Love's gone forever. Her true love was not returned.

One's life is fleeting

A rising heart yields to the pall.

Then it's gone... gone forever.

Don't deny what must befall ('cause)

once it's gone, it's gone forever.

All life's deeds are all to all.
