The earth has swallowed the snow The earth has swallowed the snow A terra engoliu a neve Again we see the plum trees in blossom Again we see the plum trees in blossom Mais uma vez, vemos as ameixeiras em flor The new willow leaves are gold The new willow leaves are gold As novas folhas de salgueiro são douradas The waters of the lake are silver The waters of the lake are silver As águas do lago são prateadas Now the butterflies powdered with gold Now the butterflies powdered with gold Agora, as borboletas com pó de ouro Lay velvet heads within the hearts of flowers Lay velvet heads within the hearts of flowers Coloque cabeças de veludo dentro dos corações das flores In his still boat, the fisherman pulls up his dripping net In his still boat, the fisherman pulls up his dripping net Em seu barco imóvel, o pescador puxa sua rede pingando Rippling the still water Rippling the still water Ondulando a água parada He thinks of a girl at home, like a dark swallow in the nest He thinks of a girl at home, like a dark swallow in the nest Ele pensa em uma menina em casa, como uma andorinha escura no ninho He thinks of a girl at home, waiting like a swallow for her mat? He thinks of a girl at home, waiting like a swallow for her mat? Ele pensa em uma garota em casa, esperando como uma andorinha por seu tapete On this autumn evening, the whit? candlelight shines coldly on the painted screen On this autumn evening, the whit? candlelight shines coldly on the painted screen Nesta noite de outono, a luz branca das velas brilha friamente na tela pintada As she strikes the passing fireflies with her gossamer fan As she strikes the passing fireflies with her gossamer fan Enquanto ela atinge os vaga-lumes que passam com seu leque de teia The color of the steps of the courtyard at night is like cold water The color of the steps of the courtyard at night is like cold water A cor dos degraus do pátio à noite é como água fria And she sits watching the herd boy dally with the spinning maiden And she sits watching the herd boy dally with the spinning maiden E ela fica sentada assistindo o menino pastor brincar com a donzela giratória
