Ezra Pound: Winter is icumen in,

a_winterincummin.jpg

Winter is icumen in,
Lhude sing Goddamm,
Raineth drop and staineth slop,
And how the wind doth ramm!
Sing: Goddamm.
Skiddeth bus and sloppeth us,
An ague hath my ham
Damm you; Sing: Goddamm.
Goddamm, Goddamm, ’tis why I am, Goddamm,
So ’gainst the winter’s balm.
Sing goddamm, damm, sing goddamm,
Sing goddamm, sing goddamm, DAMM.

You better, better find your scarf

Winter's comin', better look
Look but you're never gonna find it

I walked past your room the other day

Winter’s a-comin' (she looked but she’s never gonna find)
