Original text and translations

English text

No April can revive the wither'd flow'rs,
And tho' the grace of Spring adorn thee now;
Swift speedy time, feather'd with flying hours,
Dissolves the beauty of the fairest brow.
Then do not thou such treasure waste in vain,
But love now, whilst thou mayst be lov'd again.
