Enchanted Garden

There exist a place within this world 
Where nature forever sings with joy 
Where virgin soil holds the seed 
To reproduce the virtuous fruit
Totally free from disease

A rising sun at early dawn 
The perfume fragrance of palm leaves 
Hummingbirds and creeping squirrels 
Echo musical sounds in perpetual harmony

Rivers and streams, known as the Euphrates 
Sounds familiar to me 
An Enchanted Garden, An archaic place 
Existing before Adam and Eve

I prey this place still exist 
Pure of modern greed 
It's virgin soil would still 
Possess the seed 
To rid the world of poverty, pollution 
and disease
