Innocent Flower
Innocent flower
Of a jasmine tree
Blossoming in summer
Imparting joy as a mother
As an antidote
As a shower
What secret have you?
A secret should remain a secret
In both weakness and power
A secret is like a high tower
Leading to a secret garden
Locked for hateful hearts
Innocent and pained flower
I here neither claim nor color
You should be proud for being part of that garden
And you are so beautiful and sweet to discover
Let scoundrels wonder
For a moment and hush for an hour.
