Please pick me a little flower,
a little sweet scented flower
a little flower with bright red petals
a little flower nurtured with heart

Please pick me a little flower,
a sweet scented flower with bright red petals,
A flower nurtured with heart and plucked with care.

I wonder what makes a woman strong,
To hold one for nine long months,
And stand the pain of arrival.
...
They journey in search of what lies ahead,
A shimmering light at the tunnels end.
They live for this in all they do,
It's a journey with many ends.

Lovely Parakeet, Parakeet of the Sun,
Of all the birds I love to watch,
She's the finest and prettiest of all,
Loud and squawky but graciously refined,
...
Wake up sleeping beauty
Wake up I say to you,
Wake up and get to work
Your children are hungry, your children are starving
...
I knew this girl
She lived next door
She was my friend.
...
When the night came
She lost her luster
She lost her innocence
She lost her glamour
...
For nine month, she is molded with care
Dreadful pangs surround her exit
She reaches out and takes a breath
Full of innocence, a sight to bear.
...
Her beauty lies buried beneath
Joyful moments memories of her past
Her days were splendid her nights supreme
Her children strolling on dustless streets,
...
