As Flowers in the summer morning bares its beauty in the freshness of its lifecycleAs lifecycle
So Man in the morning of life bares all its life forces of vigour and cheerSo cheer
In the noonday the flowers maintain its fight against Sun,
Wind and StormWind Storm
So Youth struggles to be recognized and maintains its unshakable tower of strengthSo strength
Then the evening beckons: Fold your petals and lull in the darkening hourThen hour
So Man in turn shuts the door and He who makes man and flowers draws the curtain closecloseclose
And says goodnight.
