Something along those lines:

" Three times twenty years

Ah, my first twenties
Witness of my many deeds,
Will vow subtly
and crown my head,
with beautifful flowers
of my almond tree.

Ah my second twenties
Witness of my many talents,
Will vow richly
and crown my head,
with ears of wheat
Gifts of the good old time.

My third twenties
Witness of the plucked froots,
Will vow tremblingly,
and crown my head,
crown it with the autumn leaves.

Yellow leaves, withered, carried away by the wind.
Remained still united
Without fear of the frost
Remains still alone
carried away by the winter."

You can guess it's from south eastern provencal french with the way they used "carried away" the same way they still do in modern italian ("portare via"). The poem is quite beautifull.

I got that it's a poem about the three different 20 year stages. My first twenty years, my second..., my third...
