It is the Immigrant Song, but the first person is telling you incorrect lyrics.  It's really:\n\nWe come from the land of the ice and snow, where the midnight sun and the harsh wind blows.\n\nIt's a song about Vikings conquering new places.

When Night Is Falling is the correct title. You can buy it from Amazon

The main theme of "The Great Gatsby" is the rise and fall of the American Dream. Look to the passage of the Dutch Settlers in the end of the book as an analogy of hope for a new start in America and then look to examples of how the main characters fail through their excess and misdeeds as to why the "Dream" falls.\n\nRacism is also a minor theme discussed through the book.

"The Peace of Wild Things."  by Wendell Berry \n\nWhen despair grows in me\nand I wake in the middle of the night at the least sound\nin fear of what my life and my children's lives may be,\nI go and lie down where the wood drake\nrests in his beauty on the water, and the great heron feeds.\nI come into the peace of wild things\nwho do not tax their lives with forethought\nof grief. I come into the presence of still water.\nAnd I feel above me the day-blind stars\nwaiting for their light. For a time\nI rest in the grace of the world, and am free.

"Silent Night".\n\nIt was written in Germany, during a particularly bad winter. The mouse had chewed through the organ cords (made of leather) because it was starving.\n\nOn reaching the church that morning, the pastor had to come up with another song for the service, so he took a little poem and set it to guitar music. The lyrics were originally written in German.

Theme Analysis \n\n\nAlice Walker depicts Zora Neale Hurston's work as providing the \nAfrican-American literary community with its prime symbol of "racial health - a sense of black people as complete, complex, undiminished human beings" (190). Appropriately, Hurston's Their Eyes Were Watching God, published in 1937, provides an enlightening look at the journey of one of these undiminished human beings, Janie Crawford. Janie's story - based on principles of self-exploration, self-empowerment, and self-liberation - details her loss and subsequent attainment of her innocence, as she constantly learns and grows from her difficult experiences with gender issues \nand racism in Their Eyes Were Watching God. \n\nAfter joyfully discovering an archetype for sensuality and love under the pear tree at age sixteen, Janie quickly comes to understand the reality of marriage when she marries Logan Killicks, then Joe Starks. Both men attempt to coerce Janie into submission to them by treating her like a possession: where Killicks works Janie like a mule, Joe objectifies her like a medal around his neck. In addition, Janie learns that passion and love are tied to violence, as Killicks threatens to kill her, and both Joe and Tea Cake beat her to assert their dominance. Yet Janie continually struggles to keep her inner Self intact and strong, remaining resilient in spite of her husbands' \nphysical, verbal, and mental abuse. Janie's resilience is rewarded when she finally meets and marries Tea Cake, who represents the closest semblance to her youthful idealism regarding love and marriage. \nAnother male figure playing prominently in Janie's life is the white man who raped her grandmother; her lineage determines, therefore, that Janie will look whiter than other black women. This fair complexion eventually attracts the ambitious Joe Starks, yet also contributes to Joe's objectification of Janie. Yet, outward appearances aside, Janie's identity takes shape in response to the white male tyranny that made her own birth possible. \n\nFor example, Janie's husband Jody paints his house "a gloaty, sparkly white," (44) humiliates the citizens of Eatonville in similar ways as the white man would, and forces Janie into the slavish servitude reflected by the identity-confining head rag he makes her wear (51). Yet, Janie fights Joe's tyranny by telling him off just before he dies in Chapter Eight, then reclaims her own identity by burning up "every one of her head rags" (85). Similarly, Janie encounters Mrs. Turner, Hurston's symbol of internalized racism, who doesn't "blame de white folks from hating [African-Americans] 'cause Ah can't stand 'em mahself" (135). Again, however, Janie remains true \nto herself as she continues to form her own identity by refusing to leave Tea Cake and class off as Mrs. Turner suggests. \n\nRather than self-destruct under the constant realities of racism and misogyny she receives throughout her life, Janie Crawford does the opposite at the close of Their Eyes Were Watching God. The novel's final image states what Janie does throughout the story - taking her difficult past in and growing stronger and wiser as a result of it. Author Zora Neale Hurston believed that freedom "was something internal….The man himself must make his own emancipation" (189). Likewise, in her defining moment of identity formation, Janie "pulled in her horizon like a great fish-net. Pulled it from around the waist of the world and draped it over her shoulder. So much of life in its meshes! She called in her soul to come and see" (184). At the end of a novel focusing on self-revelation and self-formation, Janie survives with her soul - made resilient by continual struggle - intact.

The trumpet of a prophecy! O Wind,   \nIf Winter comes, can Spring be far behind? \n\nIMHO\nPrehaps it is a statement about the inevitable cycle of change, birth and rebirth, life-death and then life.
