Blessed be the snow
That's falling
Virgin white
Is covering everything
Blessed be the Sun
That's hiding
No shedding light
On the face of suffering.

Oooh, Mum's dying
Oooh, Mum's dying.

Make no move
Make no sound
She's flying
Heavenbound
And all that will be left behind
Is that peace of mind
That speech beyond words
That mysterious beautiful bird.

Oooh, Mum's dying
Oooh, Mum's dying.

Blessed be the snow
That's falling
Virgin white
Is covering everything
Blessed be the Sun
That's hiding
No shedding light
On the face of suffering.

Oooh, Mum's dying
Oooh, Mum's dying.
