Long-awaited Summer

Aestas ab exilio
redit exoptata,
picto ridet gremio
tellus purpurata.
Miti cum susurrio
suo domicilio
gryllus delectatur.
Hoc canore iubilo,
multiformi sibilo
nemus gloriatur.

Long-awaited summer has come from exile, the violaceous earth smiles in her painted lap. The cricket, in his home, amuses himself with a soothing whisper. With this melodious song, with this multi-voiced hissing, the forest rejoices.

Carmina Burana 74.31-40. My translation.
