If nothing takes away our power
To think of what is past -
What matters where our spirits go,
What life we lead at last?

Whether we burn in summer's heat
Or freeze in winter's cold,
Whether we float on silver waves,
Or ride on beams of gold:

No matter where or what we are,
To work, my love, or play;
In Heaven or Earth, our cry shall be -
'How old is Love to-day?'
