Grey, grey wintry day
Please don’t ever go away
For how thou make me feel
Thy dark and blustery appeal
I plead with thee now to stay

Come, come with me to play
Give me voice, and thou shall have thy say
Thy words shall coarse through me
Tired of pretending uselessly
Dressed up as just another ordinary day

O, O from such dreams in which I stray
In solitude once betrayed
From this time’s horizon, ever afar
Wondering, as I wish on bashful stars
Wilt thee not come my way?

Dear, dear gloom and dark dismay
What harsh and bitter light thou slay
Gifts to me, given beyond recompense
Shakes belief out of my nonsense
Of belief in beauty in all things grey

Grey, grey wintry day
Come hither, come what may
Elicit from me in depths forlorn
Words of praise for being reborn
And I, pleased to make acquaintance this way

You reach out with such tenderness, dear J.!
