我們失去的一切都能得到補償，我們所有的痛苦都能得到安慰；

可是夢境似的青春一旦消逝，它帶走了我們心中的某種美好，從此一去不復返。

The Flight of Youth by Richard Henry Stoddard

There are gains for all our losses.

There are balms for all our pain;

But when youth,the dream,departs

It takes something from our hearts,

And it never comes again.

We are stronger, and are better,

Under manhood’s sterner reign;

Still we feel that something sweet

Following youth, with flying feet,

And will never come again.

Something beautiful is vanished,

And we sigh for it in vain;

We behold it everywhere,

On the earth, and in the air,

But it never comes again!
