Уильям Генри Дэвис (Дэйвис) (William Henry Davies)




Текст оригинала на английском языке

My Youth


My youth was my old age,
    Weary and long;
It had too many cares
    To think of song;
My moulting days all came
    When I was young.

Now, in life's prime, my soul
    Comes out in flower;
Late, as with Robin, comes
    My singing power;
I was not born to joy
    Till this late hour.
