Winter Dies

As the spring is made alive the winter dies

And the final cries of creatures are long behind

And full of spirit the village starts again

With one more year for a man to change his ways



I used to feel all things around me stir

Grateful for all I received

Taking in the sounds and ways of creatures upon the earth

Great were the rivers I swam waiting out the sun



As the winter dies the earth is brought to life

And a thousand merchant ships sail to find

A worthy village to land and start again

With one more year for a man to change his ways



I used to feel all things around me stir

Grateful for all I received

Taking in the sounds and ways of creatures upon the earth

Great were the rivers I swam waiting out the sun



I used to feel all things around me stir

I’d hear the sound of creatures upon the earth

Grateful for all I received

Though winter cold and spring
