If I cast my eyes before me
Towards an infinite space in which I do not exist
And if I look behind me, what a terrible procession there in which I do not exist
And how little space I occupy in this first bit of time
Like to the falling of a star
Or as the flights of eagles are
Or like the fresh spring's gaudy hue
Or silver drops of morning dew
Or like a wind that chafes the flood
Or bubbles on which water stood
Even such is man whose borrowed light
Is straight called in and paid tonight
The wind blows out, the bubble dies
The spring entombed in autumn lies
The dew dries up, the star is shot
The flight is past and man forgot
The wind blows out and the bubble dies
The spring entombed in autumn lies
The dew dries up and the star is shot
The flight is past and man forgot
Earth covers earth
Time tryeth truth

歌詞解析
一句話主旨
生命如朝露般短暫，時間終將驗證一切虛妄。
主題
探討時間的無情與人類存在的渺小，以自然意象隱喻生命易逝與真理的不可逆。
情緒
沉靜中帶有哀愁，並蘊含對無常的接受與哲思。
意象與手法
運用流星、晨露、水泡等自然現象比喻生命短暫，透過重複段落強化時間循環與消逝的宿命感，並以「Earth covers earth」象徵生命回歸塵土的最終命運。
重點句解讀
1. 「Even such is man whose borrowed light / Is straight called in and paid tonight」
（人不過是借來的光，今夜便需歸還）
揭示生命如借來的光輝，終將在時間中消逝，強調存在的暫時性與必然性。
2. 「The wind blows out, the bubble dies / The spring entombed in autumn lies」
（風吹熄、水泡破裂／春日被封存於秋日）
以自然現象隱喻美好事物的瞬間與消亡，暗示時間對一切的吞噬與改寫。
3. 「Time tryeth truth」
（時間驗證真相）
點明主題核心，時間如試金石般剝離虛偽，直指生命本質的無常與真實。
適合情境
獨處沉思、面對生命無常時、或於自然景觀中感受時間流動之際。
