But meanwhile time flies; it flies never to be regained.

Original text (Latin)
Toil conquered the world, unrelenting toil, and want that pinches when life is hard.
No stranger to trouble myself I am learning to care for the unhappy.
A generation which ignores history has no past —and no future.
Nothing is there to come, and nothing past,
But an eternal now does always last.
