ย
Once I was a flower
Fair and large in shape
Rainbow-winged the insects
That from my chalice ate
The rivers sang me hymns
Of beauty without end
And jewel-breasted birds
Were enticed by my scent
Then they cut the thread
Of all my emerald splendour
And placed me in her hair
To mingle with her grandeur
That night she passed away
I know not how she died
I had hoped to share
With her eternal night
ย
But a strange wind entered
Spreading my leaves dead
Scattering them in ruin
On her cold death bed
ย
Yet my ghost remained
Like a faint perfume
I do now haunt her grave
Her silent chamber's gloom
To stay with her forever
Like a faint perfume
