Come close to me, oh companion of my full life; Come close to me and let not Winter's touch enter between us. Sit by me before the hearth, For fire is the only fruit of Winter.
Speak to me of the glory of your heart, For that is greater than the shrieking elements beyond our door. Bind the door and seal the transoms, For the angry countenance of the heaven depresses my spirit, And the face of our snow-laden fields makes my soul cry.
