Încet, încet, toamna s-a aşezat liniştită, lăsându-ne să ne bucurăm de ultimele zile călduroase din an… Venind spre birou dimineaţă, pedalând prin Cişmigiu (unul din parcurile în care în acest an în loc să se investească în flori şi verdeaţă s-au băgat bani în pândari care nu ştiu să de deplaseze decât în grup)… şi fără să-mi dau seama cum… m-am pomenit fredonând melodia asta… Try to remember. Mai jos varianta cântată de Harry Belafonte.

Try to remember the kind of September
when life was slow and oh, so mellow.
Try to remember the kind of September
when grass was green and grain was yellow.
Try to remember the kind of September
when you were a tender and callow fellow,
Try to remember and if you remember the follow.

Try to remember when life was so tender
that no one wept except the willow.
Try to remember when life was so tender that
dreams were kept beside your pillow.

Try to remember when life was so tender that
love was an ember about to billow.
Try to remember and if you remember then follow.

Deep in December it’s nice to remember
altho you know the snow will follow.
Deep in December it’s nice to remember
without the hurt the heart is hollow.
Deep in December it’s nice to remember
the fire of September that made us mellow.
Deep in December our hearts should remember and follow.
