In early twilight hours When the winter horizon glows in white It seems as if the world is truly grand, And the mountains echo across the sky.
Starlight ripples in the last moments of its long voyage. Bent by unknowable tides, the night sparkles, And a tiny world raises a powerful voice To sing with its universe.
Wind, stars and the galaxies beyond, Give of yourselves, And pour down your light Upon these wintering lands!
The chorus surrounds - deafens. From the farthest reaches of space To the deepest depths of time All becomes crystallized from the frozen land to shimmering stars, As the heavens and Earth sing together.
Then come clouds. All becomes dark, All becomes silent.
