[Intro: Sound of flowing water, gentle acoustic guitar] [Soft Kargyraa throat singing] [Verse 1] The winter breaks, the ice is thin A newer season will begin The frozen water starts to flow Into the valleys down below [Verse 2] The horsehead fiddle plays a tune Beneath the pale and quiet moon A song of sorrow, song of peace Where all the worldly struggles cease [Chorus] Oh, rivers running cold and clear [Harmonic overtone melodies] Washing away the winter's fear Carry the memories to the sea And let the frozen spirit free [Instrumental Interlude: Morin Khuur (horsehead fiddle) solo with acoustic guitar] [Verse 3] The silver fish begin to wake Within the crystal mountain lake The earth is drinking from the stream Awakening from winter's dream [Chorus] Oh, rivers running cold and clear [Harmonic overtone melodies] Washing away the winter's fear Carry the memories to the sea And let the frozen spirit free [Instrumental Outro: Flowing water sounds fading into soft guitar chords] [End]
