Robert Frost: Restas Nenia Or' (Nothing Gold Can Stay)

'as or' l' unua verdo,
Por l' mondo frua perdo.
Eka foli' 'as floro;
Sed restas nur por horo.
Foli' post foli' ceden.
Ĉagrenen sinkis Eden1,
Krepusk' por l' tago for2,
Restas nenia or'.
Nature's first green is gold
Her hardest hue to hold.
Her early leaf's a flower;
But only so an hour.
Then leaf subsides to leaf.
So Eden sank to grief,
So dawn goes down to day.
Nothing gold can stay.

1: Ankaŭ: Edeno, Edena Ĝardeno.
2: La krepusko sinki|as for por ke venu la tago.
