歌詞

The chai goes low and slow tonight

The way the season asks

The milk turns gold with cinnamon

The ginger does its part

The cardamom opens like a door

Straight to the drinker's heart

The little pan is singing now

A song of coming cold

Simmer slow, the spiced and sweet

The first chai of the fall

Sweeter than the honeycomb

The warmest words of all

The steam is thicker than July's

It means the air is cool

The lamb has parked beneath the stove

Its snout on one front hoof

The whole house smells like brave and warm

Like sweaters for the soul

Simmer slow, the spiced and sweet

The first chai of the fall

Sweeter than the honeycomb

The warmest words of all

Some drinks are made, and some are brewed

And chai — chai is persuaded

Coaxed from milk and stubborn bark

Till every cold's abated

Mmm... mmm... mmm

Simmer slow, the spiced and sweet

The first chai of the fall

Sweeter than the honeycomb

The warmest words of all

Simmer slow, the spiced and sweet

The first chai of the fall

Sweeter than the honeycomb

The warmest words of all

The chai goes low and slow tonight

And I go warm and glad
