It’s so gracefully snowing today:
Snow-white blossoms unceasingly fall.
Just like that my first love died away
With its passionate vows once for all.
Weeks ago, when the spring was still raging,
Driving ice-floes along all the streams,
My love died in the arms of a stranger
While I whispered her name in my dreams.
A full moon climbed the sky still higher
Shedding silvery light on the grass,
Yet my love was so quick to expire
Like a small golden fish under glass.
I recalled the sad end of a tale
Once I read overwhelmed with gloom
How a maiden from fear turned pale
When exchanging gold rings with her groom.
It’s so gracefully snowing today:
In the park snow-white blossoms fall,
But my love quite by chance slipped away
With its rose-tinted charms once for all.
