'Tis done! -- I saw [it]1 in my dreams;
No more with Hope the future beams;
My days of happiness are few:
Chill'd by misfortune's wintry blast,
My dawn of life is overcast;
Love Hope, and Joy, alike adieu!
Would I could add Remembrance too!

完了!?梦里看见景象:
未来不再充满希望;
我的幸福日子不多:
不幸寒风让我心寒,
我生命曙光已暗淡;
去了爱、希望和欢乐!
能否加上回忆之歌!
