Here is the original:
Three months of winter coolness
And awesome holidays
We've kept our hoovsies warm at home
Time off from work to play
But the food we've stored is runnin' out
And we can't grow in this cold
And even though I love my boots
This fashion's getting old

And my first Try:

Tri monatoj de vintra felicxo
kaj mojosaj festotagoj
Ni tenis hejme niajn hufojn warme
prenas tempon por ludi (it is replaced.)
Sed niaj mangxajxoj elcxerpigxas
kaj vi ne plantus apud tio malvarmeco
Kaj tamen mi amas mian botojn
tio estos maljuna

You are missing the point of "the fashion's getting old".

This is an idiom that means either that the fashion has gone out of style, or you have gotten tired of the fashion. It doesn't mean that it has literally become old.

Wow I never thought I'd see MLP and Esperanto mix. I almost didn't notice until I saw your av. Would be a shame to remove the word fashion but it is an idiom. I think each of the lines are a good pun on each character.

How is this for an esperantized version of OP's avatar? (attached image)

"Luna vi ĝojigas" -- is it too confusing to use that word order and also lack the accusative or a preposition for 'Luna'?

Sorry for not helping with your original question, I got distracted by your av... ridulo.gif

It is a bit vague but the picture probably gives enough context.
Edit: Whoops I thought you were asking how it's related. xD;; Nvm.
