The Last Winter Dance Lyrics - Cales

... Winter came suddenly 

Without mercy it set its icy hungry teeth 

In our necks. 

Heads of noble birds swimming on the water surface 

Flew to thousands of parts just before it froze 

As if struck by invisible hammers. 

Little peevish parts of icy air consumed 

Everything unprepared, wind aided in it and played 

Melancholic symphony of extinction on its silver icicle violin. 

Thousands of icy headsmen with pigs' wailing in the background 

Executed without the only drop of blood. 

... in several minutes only a family of rats remained on the little 

island, 

that survived the last winter dance unknowingly ... 

... until the morning the queen of frost 

danced on her icy mirror 

At eh snowy throat of winter
