Oh seed - oh sprouting - oh wondrous
Oh plants - oh flowers - oh growing
Keeps growing, lights whirling
Spiralling into the circles of... wondrous
Sunflower blossom and wow
Blossom oh - life oh - colourful life - fragile life
Deep from sun and the soil comes the wonders
Oh you will be welcome here
All are well, come well,
Come, come here,
Oh, oh, oh,
Trees are taking a slow, oh slow, oh slow dance,
Swaying, swaying
Purple and green,
vigorous,
Water drop on a green leaf,
Blueberry rose, yellow jasmine, orange tulips,
Forget me not passion - oh,
Water lilies, blue light daisy, eyes of iris, scarlet orchid,
Passion magnolia
Whirl of lushness, murmuring wondrous oh wonder,

Murmuring wondrous oh wonder world

Rest your tired head on the flower bed (2x)

Space, out in the open
out there in space reaching forever
is a ball made of soil, oxygen and water
rapidly circling around
moving on circling
a far haphazard star.
Mother Earth and a star called the Sun,
Uh called the Sun.
Sun of fire,
warming up the planet soil and water,
There we go,
angels blow,
the beginning of you reaching out,
aahh...
Uh, di-di-di - di di-di-di di di-di-di
Human beings,
being human to each other,
On the Earth
Human beings act human to each other,
Reaching out, rapidly circling around a star,
Water and soil,
delicate hearts,
Human beings reaching out,
letting divine light,
m – m – m – m – m
brighten their delicate hearts.
