Dream of a Hot Summer Day

The winter was so bitterly cold
I longed for a hot summer day, 
Wishing for the sun so gold,
To warm all my aches away.

I longed for a hot summer day, 
When I could visit the beach,
To warm all my aches away,
Eating sweet yellow peach.
 
When I could visit the beach,
Dipping into the water blue;
Eating sweet yellow peach -
Which spring so kindly grew!

Dipping into the water blue,
Walking under trees of green,
Which spring so kindly grew,
In the shade I languidly lean.

Walking under trees of green,
Wishing for the sun so gold,
In the shade I languidly lean -
The winter was so bitterly cold.
