Come down once again --
cover what's not yet melted.
Should the spring haze rise,
we surely would seldom see
the fair snow anymore.

Original author unknown. The grammar and manner suggest this is a very old poem. Note the contrast of the falling of the snow and the rising of the haze.kenu ga ue ni
