Fate Fate All things pass away Life is forever, youth is for a day. Love again if you may Before the stars are blown out of the sky And the crickets die Babylon and Samarkand Are mud walls in a waste of sand.
Fate Fate All things pass away Life is forever, youth is for a day. Love again if you may Before the stars are blown out of the sky And the crickets die Babylon and Samarkand Are mud walls in a waste of sand.
From your hostages to silence,
Learn there is no life without death, no dawn without sun-setting,
No victory but to him who has given all.
Yellow melon flowers Crawl beneath the withered peach-trees A date-palm throws its heavy fronds of steel Against the scoured metallic sky.
