For a Moment Share
For what have I to take from you for what have I to give,
For what of me prevents a bird its song always to live,
Among the garden earthly green amid the pollen wares,
Oh what can I require them but for a moment share.
To spare my soul from drudgery to list a day renewed,
Where can be found a gift well gave cheering away gloom,
For what have I to take from bird for what have I to give,
For what are we this bird and I except a moment lived.
