Song

Let a florid music praise,
     The flute and the trumpet,
Beauty's conquest of your face:
In that land of flesh and bone,
Where from citadels on high
Her imperial standards fly,
          Let the hot sun
          Shine on, shine on.

O but the unloved have had power,
     The weeping and striking,
Always time will bring their hour;
Their secretive children walk
Through your vigilance of breath
To unpardonable Death,
          And my vows break
          Before his look.

– W.H. Auden (1936)
