In the bleak midwinter, frosty wind made moan
Earth stood hard as iron, water like a stone
Snow had fallen, snow on snow, snow on snow
in the bleak midwinter, long ago

Weer een jaar begint er
en je lege plek
wordt door verse vlokken
sneeuw op sneeuw bedekt.

@sonofmusicclub I heard a version in Welsh by Mesadorm (great band!) last night. The show was their "Big Christmas Singalong". They didn't expect us to singalong to that. ๐Ÿ˜†
Ana Silvera has a lovely version.

Her whole Winter EP is beautiful.

โ€œThis is the solstice, the still point of the sun, its cusp and midnight, the yearโ€™s threshold and unlocking, where the past lets go of and becomes the future; the place of caught breath, the door of a vanished house left ajar.โ€ ~ Margaret Atwood
