When I was young, can’t quite remember that time,
Mahler’s Second Symphony was enough for me.
I was a busy lad and rushed about, and could not
Sit through all he wrote. So that was that.
But now I am eighty, and when the sun dips down
And I can no longer read or write, I don’t know what to do,
For it’s too early to go to bed, and I have time on my hands.
So, thank God for Mahler, the YouTube, Claudio Abbado
At the Lucerne Festival. I sit back and let it rip.
