Timber Koleden

Lay down your little weary head,
Be still now, let me tuck you into bed.
Close your eyes and hug your little ted,
Close your eyes now and let me kiss your little head.
...

So long this road I have walked;
With so many strangers I have talked.
So many mountains I have climbed;
And yet one desire lingers in my mind.
...

May you find the light,
And see your dreams all come true.
May you love what is right,
And walk in wisdom and candor pure.
...

We have come all this weary way;
I could not have made it alone.
But you were by my side ev'ry day:
I love you more than you than you can know.
...

I slept and dreamed a dream tonight,
and in my dream I was walking, walking in the sunlight.
I looked an I saw you sitting beside the stream;
you were bright, like gleaming light, like a sunlight beam;
...

How am I to describe that feeling,
That a child has laughingly reeling?
Like tweeting birds on a lovely summer day?
Or like sleek otters splashing at play.
...

In youthful springs, my laughter bloomed in light,
Beneath the budding trees I forged my dreams,
But now with autumn's chill, I face the night,
As tender hope dissolves in silent streams.
...

The frosted earth, a slumber deep,
Now wakes to whispers, soft and steep.
A gentle rain, a cleansing tear,
Dispels the winter's chilling fear.
...

My love has gone across the sea
To find a country far and fair
He sailed into the gilded west'
And lo, my heart will never rest
...

Darkness seems to endlessly surround,
A night that never ends.
There is light to be found,
When kindness shines again.
...

Night is now falling;
This day is swiftly ending.
The door is open wide;
Snow is falling outside.
...

Through dust and ashes
Snow and coldest rains
We have tarried
Yet my love for you remains.
...

When we were young this life was so simple;
We needed only obey and be thankful.
We had chores around our little farm;
But life was happy when the weather was warm.
...

What is love, only a feeling?
Love must be unbreakable,
Like a sacred vow binding.
...

The shadows fell; there was darkness,
and the bells stopped ringing in the towers.
The night came with such subtle stillness,
and the petals fell from all the flowers.
...

Grey are the eyes that newly upon the world looks
Returned and alive, the legend of old books
White shines the fur of an age distant and past
Rising to gleam again, after 10,000 years at last
...

In shadows deep, where whispers cling,
A tale of love and loss takes wing,
Severus Snape, with heart concealed,
A legacy of pain revealed.
...

The earth that is scorched with seed inside
Will bloom again in the spring.
The river that is frozen deep under ice
Will one day again forth spring.
...

The road has been long and black the night;
Days of darkness have we seen and days of light.
Cold has been the way but warm was your hand;
Darkness before and darkness behind; all ‘round barren lands.
...

Even in the darkest night,
When all around crowds fear;
I will hold for you a light,
When you need me: I am here.
...
