Good morning, bright rays who first touch the sky
Your time is fleeting, The Time is nigh
For life is fading, and but a memory long ago
As the sun once rising, now is but a glow

Good morning, young children, you'd best be wise
For your life, too, is fleeting - don't just stand by
Though adulthood seems far, it will soon be on its way
So toil while you can, you dare not delay

Good morning, treasured loved ones, those you hold so dear
Never fail to be thankful, don't succumb to one fear
Remember your time is precious, always to speak from your heart
Remember that time is passing, and that we soon will part.

Good morning, oh hands, with your dreadful precision
Why can't you wait, give me just one more minute?
Please, I am begging, tarry one more breath
For the life just beginning now races towards death.
