Edward Elgar - The Snow, Op. 26, No. 1 - ноты, текст песни (слова)

O snow, which sinks so light,
 Brown earth is hid from sight
 O soul, be thou as white as snow,
 O snow, which falls so slow,
 Dear earth quite warm below;
 O heart, so keep thy glow
 Beneath the snow.
 
 O snow, in thy soft grave
 Sad flow'rs the winter brave;
 O heart, so sooth and save, as does the snow.
 The snow must melt, must go,
 Fast, fast as water flow.
 Not thus, my soul, O sow
 Thy gifts to fade like snow.
 
 O snow, thou'rt white no more,
 Thy sparkling too, is o'er;
 O soul, be as before,
 Was bright the snow.
 Then as the snow all pure,
 O heart be, but endure;
 Through all the years full sure,
 Not as the snow.
