Tu quoque maturos, puer inmature, dolores interrupisti luctus acerbus avi, Pastor care nepos, spes cuius certa fuisses, Hesperii patris tertia progenies, nomen, quod casus dederat (quia fistula primum pastorale melos concinuit genito), sero intellectum vitae brevis argumentum: spiritus adflatis quod fugit e calamis.
You also, lad of unripe years, have broken this sequence of laments for riper age, Pastor, my loved grandson, filling with bitter grief your grandfather, whose sure hope you would have been, third child of Hesperius your father. Your name, which chance had given you (because just when you were born a pipe sounded some pastoral air), too late was understood to be a symbol of your short life: because the breath soon passes from the pipes on which a shepherd blows.
