whenever i'm scared Whenever I'm afraid, life may not wait My pen has collected my vigorous thoughts, Can't wait to pile up a pile of books, in the text, Like a rich barn, gathering the ripe corn; Whenever I see in the starry night Great cloudy sign of legend, And thought, I might not live to that day, Tracing its phantasms with the magic pen of chance; Whenever I feel, O fleeting beauty! I may never see you again, I will no longer be intoxicated by carefree love and its charm! --So, in this vast On the shores of the world, I stand alone and meditate, Until love, fame, all disappeared into nothingness.
