Alone

O, O, the winter wind, the North wind--
My snow-bird, where art thou gone?
O, O the wailing wind, the night wind--
The cold nest; I am alone.
O, O my snow-bird!

O, O, the waving sky, the white sky--
My snow-bird, thou fliest far;
O, O the eagle’s cry, the wild cry--
My lost love, my lonely star.
O, O my snow-bird!
