Where the snow bird flies,

Its path is unforgettable,

The glory and joy it brings,

It takes back when it goes!

Why the snow bird disappears,

No one will ever know,

But when the green appears,

It knows the time has come to go!

As the wisps of cotton,

Come flowing down to earth,

It gives back one sad look,

And gathers up its presents!

Come back, come back snow bird,

Show us where you go,

What ever have we done,

For you to leave us so!

Children cry, children cry,

As the beauty goes away,

But they know as always,

It will come back another day!

Snow bird, snow bird,

You engulf the world in white,

But leave us,

Just as you come!

Oh what have we done, what have we done,

To deserve this,

Snow bird, snow bird,

Spread your wings again!!
