When in the wind the vane turns round | B |
And round and round | B |
And in his kennel whines the hound | B |
When all the gable eaves are bound | B |
With icicles of ragged gray | C |
A glinting gray | C |
There is little to do and much to say | C |
And you hug your fire and pass the day | C |
With a thought of the springtime dearie | C |

When late at night the owlet hoots | D |
And hoots and hoots | D |
And wild winds make of keyholes flutes | D |
When to the door the goodman's boots | D |
Stamp through the snow the light stains red | E |
The fire light's red | E |
There is nothing to do and all is said | E |
And you quaff your cider and go to bed | E |
With a dream of the summer dearie | C |

III | A |
- | |
When nearing dawn the black cock crows | F |
And crows and crows | F |
And from the barn the milch cow lows | F |
And the milkmaid's cheeks have each a rose | F |
And the still skies show a star or two | G |
Or one or two | G |
There is little to say and much to do | G |
And the heartier done the happier you | G |
With a song of the winter dearie | C |
