Description
Poem by Ronsard as translated into English by my father Stanley N Solomons.
It is a "gather ye rosebuds" type of poem in which he berates his girlfriend for staying in bed too long instead of getting up and enjoying life while she is still young.
This is an alto and cello version, specifically requested, of the original alto and guitar version.
