I'm growing from a seed
With just water as my greed..

Two wrinkled leaf I've grown
I'm wearing it as my crown

Light beams caressing my body
I've wind as my buddy..

A bud blooms into a flower
This my happy hour..

With water and wind
I've grown strong..

But that one leaf
Gave me such grief..

The one that I wore as crown
One day decided to fall down

Oh! How long cried
But it had already died..

The one leaf that fell
Leaving my heart with grief to swell...

That one that fell....
