We see it as a narration but in the womb of winter time stands still Nothing echoes and nothing moves
With a universal affection The winter takes it all Like a spreading disease Crimson stains conspicuously on the ground Cloaked in pestilence, it bleeds Like a spreading disease
A cold winter morning Crystalline rime on the ground White diamonds and pearls And the world opens its eyes
A cold winter morning Bright drops dwell on the pane Meet in cold embrace And the world opens its eyes
Like the sirens' song, the winter reveals itself As a deadly temptress, fraudulent and haughty Arraying us in its wintry veil Leaving us cold and numb In the womb of winter
A cold winter day Bare trees go down on their knees Stroke the soil with their branches The pale sun is crossing the sky
A cold winter evening The snow descends from above And drapes the ground in white And the world closes its eyes
