Language: German (Deutsch) 
Our translations:  ENG
O weh, ihr schlanken Bächlein
Durch Wiese und durch Wald,
Der Winter kommt, der Winter kommt,
Macht euch zu Eise bald.

O weh, ihr zarten Blumen
Auf Bergen und im Thal,
Der Winter kommt, der Winter kommt,
Macht welken euch zumal.

O weh, du armer Junge,
Amor, was fängst 
fangst du an?
Der Winter kommt, der Winter kommt,
Du hast kein Röcklein an!

O sieh, dort fliegen Storchen,
Heb' deine Flügelein,
Der Winter kommt! Zieh mit! zieh mit! im Frühling
Kehre wieder bei uns ein.

    Set to music by Carl Evers (1819 - 1875), "Der Winter kommt!", op. 41 (6 Gedichte von Theobald Kerner) no. 3
