Night prevails with infinite echoes Over the naked trees of my north kingdom The iced-moon illumines my crystal throne And prepare me to slumber in nocturnal cold
As the ravens chant in the winter sky I walk onward into the crystal snows Where the moonlight shadows dance And where the rays of the sun die Before reaching the first cloud
My clear crystal spirit Reflects my coldest winter thoughts With supreme majesty I proudly reign On my medieval frozen kingdom
\"Et au-delà de mon royaume se trouve la montagne Où même le temps est défendu d'y pénétrer\"
