Run swiftly said the wolf and the winter will not fall
Howl long and deep and you shall not hear it's call
Keep an ear to the wind and your gaze never flinching
And the coming snow will never greet your coat

The grass will stay lush and the ground never freeze
The sky will stay blue and the birds in the trees
Your belly full and your legs steadfast and strong
Run swiftly to where winter won't follow

So on I ran with the wind at my side
My feet a blur and my eyes filled with pride
And yet the faster I flew, the colder I became
'till winter came and swallowed me whole
