What is this life , full of care ,

We have no time to stand and stare .

No time to stand beneath the boughs

And stare as long as sheep or cows .

No time to see , when woods we pass ,

Where squirrels hide their nuts in grass .

No time to see , in board daylight ,

Streams full of stars , like stars at night .

No time to turn at Beauty's glance ,

And watch her feet , how they can dance .

No time to wait till her mouth can

Enrich that smile her eyes began .

A poor life this is , full of care ,

We have no time to stand and stare .
