Bell of a Leaving Summer

In silence of the middle of August The bell rings plaintively. It cries about a dream not seen. But the red, setting sun has poured bright light around, and birds sing joyfully about love, about spring. Grasses dance to the kisses of a breeze, And flowers smile. Only the sad, gentle music is audible- The bell cries plaintively about dreams that did not come.
