I welcome life in every budding tree,
in crocuses that break through winter snow;
In rolling waves of Adriatic Sea,
the mountains and the tumbling streams below.
I welcome life in flowers of the field,
the crimson poppies and the clover fair;
in holy bluebells with their heads that yield
to feisty sunflowers that parade out there.
I welcome life in horses of the wild
traversing golden prairies in the west,
In innocence of every newborn child,
the pair of songbirds hammering their nest.
I welcome life in happy lovers' kiss;
In scented rainbows and the orchid's bliss.
