(translated lyrics)
You are a slender flower with multicolored petals
Let out all the pain like pollen in hang gliding
An intense mint smell on the lime green petal
The mind wants more rhymes and rhythms that move the stem
Of the leaves better not speak cause I hold you in high esteem
You are the happiest flower where butterflies land
By your side a mushroom it's nothing more than a nuance
In times of empress you admired honesty
but at my age I couldn't reed that aroma
By assuming that coma the identity came back to me
You are always that flower which illuminates my sense of smell
You have an innate talent: each petal of one color
Without reading the word love beauty feels peace
It can be so fleeting like pollen turned into honey
My skin would love it if I were bolder
