Triumph in the Snow

Come gentile snow, come
Come back again,
Come here to coat the Earth
With your white sheet.

Here autumn lives,
Here autumn is
Fading away to death.
Thus autumn dies.

The Earth is marked.
The Earth dies soon,
As winter's reign begins
On Earth today

The Snow is falling,
The Snow is falling
On this fallen Earth.
Cold winter claims the corpse.

A bird survives the cold.
A bird survives
Despite the cold.
A bird is singing in the cold.
