===============

I can be firm in what I choose to seek,
Though often I admire a gentle art.
But never try - now hear me as I speak -
to win my love or claim a hidden part.

I do not know what crossed your youthful mind,
or what you hoped for, bringing flowers today.
Though you were desperately, willfully blind,
you merely helped to pass my hours away.

It was a dream, a phantom of the night,
a breath of youth, a wind that used to blow.
But freedom's spark has failed to catch the light.
The world is harsh, and now at last we know.

Let not my words disturb your quiet grace,
be ready for the sudden twists of fate.
I always watched your bold and daring gaze,
and let you near before it grew too late.

But shallow feelings have no room to grow.
Your naive love is fragile and too plain.
Immature wishes fade like melting snow -
with you beside me, I'm alone again.

These belated lectures are entirely wrong,
so save reproaches for another day.
I pity you a little in this song:
you never learned the rules of how to play.
