While snowflakes dance and a cold Eastwind blows
My hands in the pockets and a red tip of nose
I’m keeping my heart warm with a lovely dream
Knowing of wonders, taking place soon in Spring:
Spread out is a golden velvety carpet
On pastures’growing, green, lush bed
While trees attract us veiled like brides
Twig and branch covered in radiant white
Gardens compete with tulips and crocus
Every spot shining in beautiful colours
Above all is the arch of a deep blue sky
Garnished with shepherds clouds sailing by.
A day in May, described in a chanson
Makes our hearts tremble and lights up our soul
After the winter’s rule so austere
We’re craving warmth, light, new life to appear
Birds been mute, they greet mornings again
None of them looks for a partner in vain
Soon soil and air are bustling with life –
Spring is the bliss we gratefully achieve.
