Transience

Transience

Short is the dewdrop
Short is all our life,
Time cuts all youths
Such cruel a knife!

Time destroys all beauty,
Destroys the palace sublime!
Throws memories to oblivion
Destroys all riches and clime!

Transient is life, such is all
Remains virtue above all,
Rise of power falls alike
But virtues do never fall..
