It was one of the first songs I composed for harp as main instrument since  I was endorsed by Rees Harps. and We have performed this song live in our acoustic concerts since early 2011, but though it was entitled "The waking of the Spring" since the beginning due to its celtic/uplifting air, It was early 2013 I wrote the definitive lyrics and words for it.  This theme differs from our usual sound because It has more folk elements and it is happier, lighter and more colourful. In brief, It is more "the fairy" than "the ghost" here :).

Melting icicles tearing sheer droplets
giving birth to glittering sprites
that rejoice and splash at the fountain
dazzling under the light
Graceful they sing in the newborn stream
gurgle and dance at the  waking of the spring
A blooming warmth is filling the air
with tantalizing scents
and flourish now in the curve of your smile
of delicious lips so red
A promise of life
as birds unfold their wings
runs in our blood at the waking of the spring
Maidens wearing floral garlands
with a  blush so healthy glowing on their cheeks
and barefoot as they gather
like nymphs playing by the creeks 
Cover field with flawless beauty 
Crown the tree with a lush and glorious green 
The sounds that winter muted
now burst alive and sing
for the waking of the spring
la, la, la... la, la, io...
And craving for sun
our life and love renew
la, la, la... la, la, io...
and craving for sun
our life and love renew

Los carámbanos de hielo al derretirse lloran gotas transparentes
dando a luz a espíritus relucientes
que ser regocijan y chapotean en la fuente

deslumbrantes bajo la luz
y gráciles cantan en el riachuelo recién nacido
gorjean y bailan en el despertar de la primavera
Una calidez floreciente llena el aire
con fragancias seductoras
que ahora se muestra en la curva de tu sonrisa
de deliciosos labios tan rojos
Una promesa de vida
mientras los pájaros despliegan sus alas
corre por nuestra sangre en el despertar de la primavera
Doncellas que llevan guirnaldas de flores
y un saludable rubor brillando en sus mejillas
descalzas se reúnen
en el arroyo como si fueran  ninfas

Cubre los campos de inmaculada belleza
Corona el árbol con un verde exuberante y glorioso
Los sonidos que el invierno enmudeció
ahora estallan vivos y cantan
por el despertar de la primavera
la la la... la la io....
 
la, la, la.. la, la, io...
y  ansiosos por el sol
nuestra vida y nuestro amor se renuevan
 
la, la, la... la, la, io...
y ansiosos por el sol
nuestra vida y nuestro amor se renuevan
