<p>Midwinter night cold is hard.Stars glimmer and gleam.All sleeps in quiet yard,Deep in a midnight dream.Snow shines white on fence and spruce.Moon beams bright on snow-capped roofs.Hush fills a forest near a frozen lake.Only Santa is awake.</p>

<p>In the middle of winter and late at night, an old friend returns for his annual visit to take care of the animals and look after the inhabitants of the old farmhouse. He goes through his regular routine but becomes perplexed by an undying question for which he cannot find the answer. "Generations come and generations go, but where do they come from and to where do they go?"This is a new translation of the original poem and should not be confused with the adaptation by Astrid Lindgren. Also known as "Midvinternattens Köld är Hård" (Midwinter Night's Cold Is Hard), the original poem was written in Swedish by Viktor Rydberg and first published in the magazine "Ny Illustrerad Tidning" in 1881. While outwardly being an idyllic Christmas poem, the poem asks deep questions about the passage of time and the meaning of life.</p>
