| <poem>
He wanders the lands of the dreaming
He sings the songs of the unliving
He sings the death of trees
(The lovebirds have left)
Prick of frost
Icing of water
Passing of time
(The lovebirds have left)
And he is Father Winter
All-seer!

==Notes==
# literally 'dreamers'
# literally 'those not alive'
# a play on words as ''peadid'' can refer to both a amorous couple and a pair of a bird that migrates south during winter
# a “frozen” phrase meaning 'frostbite', a more modern version would be ''lumallaega''.
# literally 'he sees secrets!'.
