ARAIYUT

Overhead! look overhead!

‘Mong the blossoms white and red–

Look up, look up! I flutter now

On this fresh pomegranate bough.

See me! 'tis this silvery bill

Ever cures the good man’s ill.

Shed no tear! oh, shed no tear!

The flower will bloom another year.

Adieu, adieu – I fly – adieu!

I vanish in the heaven’s blue,–

Adieu, adieu!

John Keats, Shed No Tear.
