Folio § berfin
Berfîn
De la nieve — campanilla de invierno
Lo que es blanco nieve, puro, delicado
La historia del nombre
Berfîn — of the snow. The snowdrop opens while snow still lies on the ground; the name carries the sound of that turning, between winter and spring. As a given name it weaves together what is pure, what is white, what is delicate — and the force needed to push through hard ground.
