Stealthily, the time is sneaking
Performing its duty
On the art of killing
Murdering beauty
Time is a beast
Damaging the most divine sculpture
Decaying the beauty
Of a spoiled figure
Time is not our friend
For devouring one’s youth
And fading our spirits
While stealing away our soul
Like a mere candle
The longer you shine, the sooner you dim
The best thinker will get wrinkles
Soon enough, their ideas are killed
We fear the inevitable
For we must abide
In the rule of time
Once it’s corrupted our age
