Which in thy breast doth live, as thine in me
As I not for myself, but for thee will
Bearing thy heart, which I will keep so chary
Thou gav'st me thine, not to give back again

Herein lives wisdom, beauty, and increase
Without this, folly, age, and cold decay
If all were minded so, the times should cease
And threescore year would make the world away

When forty winters shall besiege thy brow
And dig deep trenches in thy beauty's field
Thy youth's proud livery, so gazed on now
Will be a tattered weed of small worth held

【霜降】暮色秋烟重，寒声牖叶虚。

【寒露】气冷疑秋晚，声微觉夜阑。

【秋分】风清露冷秋期半。

【白露】露从今夜白，月是故乡明。

【处暑】白头更世事，青草印禅心。

【立秋】睡起秋声无觅处，满阶梧桐月明中。

Zartdurchsichtig und marmorblaß,
Und sie spielt die Harfe und singt,
Und der Wind durchwühlt ihre langen Locken,
Und trägt ihr dunkles Lied
Über das weite stürmende Meer.
