It is to be on Winter's Eve,
a holiday for two.
And how the snow will dance for thee,
with hair matching to boot.
In both its length and in its sway,
your strands of golden sun
will radiate our merry days
and blind out lonely ones.
Wine for now to celebrate what
will only be two weeks.
Wine again to celebrate, but
these weeks to be the least!
As feast for two will soon be three
then four, no five or more!
I cannot wait, a father, me?
Children of ours be born!
Purpose of life, we shall have; share
our life's meaning we will.
As us to them and they to theirs,
we will grow old fulfilled.
Not if but when the snow winds storm,
of me you'll find no sin.
For coat and drink will lack the warmth
as family's love within.
