Blow, Blow, Thou Winter Wind

Blow, blow, thou winter wind
Thou art not so unkind
As man’s ingratitude; 
Thy tooth is not so keen, 
Because thou art not seen, 
Although thy breath be rude.

Heigh-ho! sing, heigh-ho! unto the green holly: 
Most freindship if feigning, most loving mere folly: 
Then heigh-ho, the holly! 
This life is most jolly.

Freeze, freeze thou bitter sky, 
That does not bite so nigh
As benefits forgot: 
Though thou the waters warp, 
Thy sting is not so sharp
As a friend remembered not. 
Heigh-ho! sing, heigh-ho! unto the green holly: 
Most friendship is feigning, most loving mere folly: 
Then heigh-ho, the holly! 
This life is most jolly. 

~Blow, Blow, Thou Winter Wind
William Shakespeare
