Alles endet, was entsteht
Everything comes to an End
Drei Gedichte von Michelangelo Three Poems by Michelangelo
Michelangelo
Everything ends that came to be.
Everything, everywhere perishes,
For time flies, and the sun
Sees that all, everywhere perishes,
Thought, talk, pain, joy;
And those who were our grandsons
Vanished like the shade of day,
Like mist in a breeze.
Why, we were people too,
Happy and sad, just like you,
And now we are here without life,
Just dust, as you see.
Everything ends, all that came to be.
Everything, everywhere perishes.
