[ Kyoto's Eternal Winter |  ]

The wind howls loud, the snow falls deep,  
As Kyoto shivers in its wintry sleep,  
A blizzard rages through the night,  
Painting the city in a sea of white.

The streets are silent, the lights are dim,  
As snowflakes dance in an icy hymn,  
The world outside is a winter wonder,  
But inside, hearts beat with a gentle thunder.

Through the blizzard's cold and biting sting,  
Kyoto's beauty remains an eternal thing,  
For even in the darkest winter night,  
Her spirit shines with a warm and brilliant light.
