Minnie Riperton - Les fleurs

Will somebody wear me to the fair?
Will a lady pin me in her hair?
Will a child find me by a stream?
Kiss my petals and weave me through a dream.

For all of these simple things
And much more a flower was born
It blooms to spread love and joy
Faith and hope to people forlorn Inside every man lives the seed of a flower
If he looks within he finds beauty and power

Ring all the bells sing
And tell the people that be everywhere
That the flower has come
Light up the sky with your prayers of gladness
And rejoice for the darkness is gone
Throw off your fears let your heart beat freely at the sign
That a new time is born
