Inverno [English translation]

Fog raises on white fields

Like a cypress in a graveyard

A bell tower, that looks unreal

Marks the border between earth and sky

Yet you, the one who go, please remain

You'll see, the snow will go tomorrow

Old joys shall bloom again

with the warm wind of a new summer

Even light seems to die

in the uncertain shadow of a becoming

where even dawn becoms sunset

and faces looks like wax skulls

Yet you, the one who go, please remain

even the snow will die tomorrow

Love again shell pass close by

in hawtorn season

weary earth under the snow

silently sleeps an heavvy rest

winter gather his hard work

of a thousand centuries, from an ancient dawn

Yet you, the one who reamins, why do you stay?

another winter will come back tomorrow

more snow will fall to confort fields

more snow will fall on graveyards
