Don'T Be Colder Than the Winter Snow

We met in early summer
when roses were blooming,
and all we thought of was being 
in love more than any other!   

People look at us and clearly see:
what they had once in their grasp and heartbeats,
but they lost it to uncertainty
without the scented wind's breath on their cheeks!

Don't walk in bright moonlight so sadly,
forgetting that it shone for us so happily: 
show your gladness for having me!
Don't be colder than the winter snow:
you have my hands to keep you warm,
never be afraid of walking through the storm!
By morning you'll discover the calmest sea,
and the brightest sky over a pretty willow!

Don't be colder than the winter snow,
lay on my chest, it's your soft pillow;
look further, see a beautiful star that stupefies; 
watch thousands of fireflies traveling to Mars!
Don't be colder than the winter snow,
and think that no flower will ever grow!
