Chimes lyrics

The voice of winter

Ringing loudly

Steadily the chimes sing

The winds of autumn

Blowing constant, chilled

They sweep the earth

Cooling the air of summer

The sky's blue, intense

Life's homage in fall

Nothing remains the same

Every day's end is shorter

The sun's rays bend more

Winds exhausted wither

The still of those nights

A chill slithers in

A cloudless sky glowing

With the light of many stars

So crystals will shine gleaming

In the morning's frosty dew

The webs droop of spinsters

The chimes are stilled then

Webbed in hoarfrost hold

Until the warming sunshine

Breaks its grip briefly told

A breeze breaks the silence
