Winter
a poem by Kahlil Gibran
Come close to me my strength, my life
Let not winter's touch enter between us
Sit down by the hearth, come close by the fire
The only fruit of winter.
Come close to me my strength, my life
The wine which we pressed is closing our eyes
Once more read with tears what life with me
has written on your face.
Speak to me of your glory
Obscure the elements beyond the door
And sing the song of remembrance
to Springtime's carefree sowing
And Summer's watchful tending
And Autumn's bounty at harvest.
Bind the door and seal the transoms
Guard the windows, watch the rooftops
The snow laden fields make my heart mourn
Stoke the ashes, light the fire
Fill the lamps and close the shutters!
Come beloved and fear no more the slumber of winter!
Come close to me my strength my life,
Let not winter's touch enter between us
Sit down by the hearth, come close by the fire
The only fruit of winter.
Come close to me, come close my slumber
How deep and wide the ocean of slumber.
what a beautiful song...
