All clean, all smooth, the field so white  
All clean, all smooth, the field so white
Reflects the genial sunbeam bright;  
Reflects the genial sunbeam bright;
Blue ether's sharp and stilly.  
Blue ether's sharp and stilly.
And clear as glass,  
And clear as glass,
gleams, where we pass,  
gleams, where we pass,
The meadow's surface chilly.
The meadow's surface chilly.


The dusky pine-bough bends down low,  
The dusky pine-bough bends down low,
And threatens, with its weight of snow,  
And threatens, with its weight of snow,
The wanderer to cover.  
The wanderer to cover.
Crisp to his tread, a diamond bed,  
Crisp to his tread, a diamond bed,
With pain, he travels over.
With pain, he travels over.


Good speed! upon the solid rime,  
Good speed! upon the solid rime,
The snowclad hill I swiftly climb;  
The snowclad hill I swiftly climb;
Look joyously around me,  
Look joyously around me,
And praise his might  
And praise his might
Who makes so bright  
Who makes so bright
The silver plains which bound me.
The silver plains which bound me.

All clean, all smooth, the field so white
Reflects the genial sunbeam bright;
Blue ether's sharp and stilly.
And clear as glass,
gleams, where we pass,
The meadow's surface chilly.

The dusky pine-bough bends down low,
And threatens, with its weight of snow,
The wanderer to cover.
Crisp to his tread, a diamond bed,
With pain, he travels over.

Good speed! upon the solid rime,
The snowclad hill I swiftly climb;
Look joyously around me,
And praise his might
Who makes so bright
The silver plains which bound me.
