Alas, winter has passed Spring comes on fast May flowers bloom A new tune to call forth a day New love hail new way For us all Arise! Dab sleep from your eyes Make way for strange times Advance to the sky! Gone frost on pane Tomorrow we regain Days will be long For who knows what tales will unfold To be free of cold And the long winter's night Alas, winter has passed Spring comes on fast Spring comes on fast
