lyrics
Here comes the curse of winter,
When the frost clenches hearts,
When you can’t hide from pain
And can only wait for the warmth of spring.
It laughs like a child, it croaks like a hag: "Come!
To me! To me!"
— Will my soul find strength, the darkness to fight? — None, there is none!
— Will someone save me? Please tell me, Light! — Not quite, not quite…
Up ahead I see the sheltering fire,
The chain of my footprints is ruined by wind,
I want to be home before the light is gone,
I won’t find the path in the dark to come.
Arise and walk, bonfires are calling:
"To me! To me!"
— Will my soul find strength, the darkness to fight? — None, there is none!
— Will someone save me? Please tell me, Light! — Not quite, not quite…
But lo! A shadow has crossed my way.
At once the bonfire started to die.
Will we ever get out of this gloom
Just by ourselves? Should we even try?
— Will my soul find strength, the darkness to fight? — None, there is none!
— Will someone save me? Please tell me, Light! — Not quite, not quite…
