The First Snowfall
Winter's Dance: A Nostalgic Tale of Joyful Snowfall
Lyrics
Oh the first snowfall of the winter
Expressing excitement about the initial snowfall of winter.
Was a day that we all waited for
Anticipation and eagerness for this particular day.
When it drifted to and fro
Describing the snow drifting back and forth.
Why you should've seen the snow
Highlighting the impressive height of the snow, around seven feet.
It was near seven feet or more
Emphasizing the depth of the snow near an old barn door.
By the old barn door
Setting the scene of the snowfall by the barn.
Oh the first snowfall of the winter
Reiteration of the excitement and joy of the first snowfall.
What a joy for a boy to behold
Emphasizing the delight it brings, especially for boys.
In each house you'll find a sleigh
Every household has a sleigh ready for this awaited day.
That was waiting for this day
Reference to the anticipation for this momentous day.
And of course, down the road a hill
Mention of a hill down the road for sledding joy.
For each Jack and Jill
Referencing every boy and girl, using the names Jack and Jill.
Every winter breeze that scurries
Describing the winter breeze that lifts the snowflakes in flurries.
Sends the snowflakes up in flurries
Emphasizing the sentimental and nostalgic season.
It's the good old sentimental season when
People put runners on their surreys, a traditional winter activity.
Folks put runners on their surreys
Winter activities help individuals forget their worries.
They forget about their worries
During this season, adults feel a sense of youthful joy.
And a man becomes a boy once again
Reverting to a childlike state during the snowy season.
Oh, the first snowfall of the winter
Reiteration of the joy and enchantment of the first snowfall.
Jingle bells wove their spells ever dear
Reference to the magical effect of jingle bells during winter.
Under wintry skies of gray
Setting the scene under gray wintry skies with continuous snowfall.
It was snowing hard all day
Emphasizing the persistent and heavy snowfall throughout the day.
And it showed no signs of stoppin'
Indication that the snowfall shows no signs of stopping.
Every kid with eyes a-poppin'
Children, with eyes wide open, anticipate the fun activities in the snow.
Knew he'd soon be belly-whoppin' on his ear
Expectation of enjoying activities like belly-whopping in the snow.
On the first snowfall of the winter
Repetition of the joyous atmosphere during the first snowfall.
Oh, that first snowfall of the year
Highlighting the significance of the initial snowfall in the yearly cycle.
(Oh, the first snowfall of the winter)
Reiteration of the excitement and magic of the first winter snowfall.
Oh, that first snowfall of the year
Emphasis on the special and memorable nature of the first snowfall each year.
