The Snow Is Falling Poem by AFFAQ NABI

The snow is falling, and the eagle on the maple top
Bathes; the stream is floating, and the snow sparrow
Is dancing; the thunder cloud makes a mock
'O famous star, where are you? ' and the crow
Is crowing, the barren fields sleep in blowing snow.
And the shepherd is resting with his mistress
In a warm kitchen, counting days, receiving no
Wages; snow is falling, causing him distress.
There is joy in the mountains, and murmur
In the fountains, the paltry sun is over and gone.
No sign of the moon—she might have returned
To some warmer islands. and look, the fawn
Yawns. when shall the spring tide come?
The snow is falling, and the pasture drinks rum.
