Lyrics
Red, in the sun of winter
The amaryllis blooms
So long constrained in darkness
A cold and quiet tomb
Til bursting forth in light
The song of brilliance beckons
When half spent is the night
Pink, like a summer rainstorm
The amaryllis blooms
Gentle, and soft, and blessed
A fragrant, holy womb
I saw stars in her hair
She gave us The Redeemer
He said: give me all your cares
White, as in winter woodlands
The amaryllis, too
With Mary, we behold them
By winter months subdued
Dark days, yet very God
Red streaks the great horizon
As through the fields we trod
