Go out, my heart, and seek delight,
In this dear summer time so bright,
In God’s abundance daily;
The beauty of these gardens see,
And look, how they for me and thee
Have decked themselves so gaily.
The trees with spreading leaves are blessed,
The earth her dusty rind has dressed
In green so young and tender.
Narcissus and the tulip fair
Are clothed in raiment far more rare
Than Solomon, in splendour.

Once was heard upon the right.

Boding woe to lovers true;

This Summer Was Different - Rumi Ullidov
This summer was different
For there were no sunny days
Nor starry nights
Van Gogh would cough and be sick

Nor starry nights
Van Gogh would cough and be sick

Serenata - Miloš Crnjanski
Hear, the moon weeps, young and yellow.
Listen to me, darling, the last time.
I will die, so when you want me,
do not shout my name on the sunset.
