Red Flower

Red Flower burning bright

As hot as the desert sun is burning

Men melt under your intense gaze

You thrive in the scorching heat

The cactus' flowers has nothing on your splendor

You are the life of the sandy plain

Red Flower, lighting up the desolate night

Gleaming ruby over the horizon

Grew in the paradise of the sun

Transplanted to the freezing mountains

There's little rain to refresh your petals

Yet majestically you still blossom

Red Flower, someway standing tall among the weeds

The jealous thorns prickled and pouted in envy

The average dandelion turns to plain white in despise

To equal your radiant magnificence
