Across the oceans and the distant lands,
far from me and my outstretched hands...
far from me and my outstretched hands...
Rising above the horizon, is the Rainier,
dazzling in the daylight, in grandeur
Studded with cordons of picturesque tulips,
mesmeric as an aurora over the sailing ships...
Decorated in bonny black, red and white,
glowing with grace, in the bright light
Amidst rows of countless pearls...
Amidst rows of countless pearls...
With twin petals in gracious pink curls,
there stands a tulip, noble and angelic,
dancing to the
tunes of a mystic music
Enchanting is the sight of that heavenly flower,
as in my mind, its cherubic movements appear...
Will live for the day to embrace its divinity,
as I conquer the distances with
verve and audacity
