Now, all is finished
A. Hinton
Now, all is finished.
Nothing now remains,
only the tears bequeathed to us by Nature,
and the cry from the heart
when no longer can man
endure his pain.
To me, above all,
she gave melody and words
so that I could sing of my deepest sorrow.
Others may be dumb in their sufferings,
But God gave me a gift to tell of mine.
