In the cool room of winter
Flame starts dancing in the fireplace
Swinging legs and arms with pace
Swaying hands and shoulders
Like a lovely lady dancer
Follow her tender smiling face
Her warmth touches the nearby’s
Cold skin that grins to reply
She hums a song
Makes her follower becharming
With a single’s lyric to caress
Her sweet mateless
In the silent night dreaming
Outdoors the wind inquirer
Raps the window with jealousy
Pretty flame and her follower
