Washington cherry blossoms On tidal basin's shore - Hear me: You are awesome And I your sight adore - Branches like stems of roses Flowers like butterflies Resting in lustful poses Like Dali's model lies - Pink, white and full of splendor - Sensual, warm delight - Elegant, loving, tender - Luminous to the sight: How I love rubbing on you Cheek on the flowering branch - Let me caress you, fawn you And with you my thirst quench - Washington cherry blossoms - Children of clouds and rain Tending to all the lost ones - Making them live again - Bringing the world around you Into your soft caress - Holding them as they're drowning In your white-pinkish dress - Filling their hearts with softness And with your tender bliss - Making them potent, dauntless - Warriors for love and peace - Warriors for what you know! Warriors for what you are! Rising, row upon row, Willing to travel far - To lands of death and darkness, To lands of fear and doom - To lands unfathomed, chartless And bring those lands to bloom: Bloom like your gorgeous branches! Bloom in the pink and white! Bloom, like the water quenches Thirst, or sun dispels night! Bringing with them your kindness And all that's good and true - And there you'll surely find us: Lovers of life - and you.
