Lyrics
So in the ground
The father is buried in the ground.
In frozen wood
He's buried in a cold, lifeless forest.
The father lies
Emphasizes the father's death.
And all the wrongs
All the mistakes the father made in his life.
He'd ever tried were put to rest
His past errors are now at peace.
Bore but two sons to follow him
He had only two sons who continue his legacy.
Both wrestled long, but younger wins
Both sons struggled, but the younger one prevails.
After long winter's gone
After a harsh period, things seem better.
Seems that all is well, all is well
Everything appears to be fine.
And the rose wakens now
The rose, symbolizing life and beauty, starts to bloom again.
In the joyful air, in the sun
In a happy atmosphere filled with sunlight.
There among the ruined ones
Some among the devastated ones.
Are those who've played
Includes those who've engaged in life.
And those who've sung
People who've lived their lives.
While the end remains unseen
Despite an uncertain future.
Let us play, let us sing
Encouragement to enjoy life and its pleasures.
Bring the town
Urges to bring the town together.
From all her cries
Relieve the town from its distress.
From her wounds
Heal the town's wounds.
From her sighs
Relieve the town's sorrow.
And she'll try
She (the town) attempts to fix what's broken.
Mending all she can
Effort to mend the damages.
So in the ground
Reiteration of the father's burial.
In frozen wood
Re-emphasis on the cold, desolate place of burial.
The father lies
Reiterates the father's death and burial.
And all the wrongs
Reiterates the closure of the father's mistakes.
He'd ever tried were put to rest
Repeats the father's legacy with his two sons.
Bore but two sons to follow him
Reiterates the struggle between the two sons.
Both wrestled long, but younger wins
The younger son ultimately triumphs.
