Song of the cornflowerI am a wilderness of flowers,Called blue cornflower.I love the atmosphere and the sky.I dot beautiful earth.I like the blue sky.Do not look at my small stature.I also use my beauty to dress up the fields, ridge and the mountainside.I am happy cornflower.The body has no thorn.
I like lovely children, I am naively honest and happy.God planted me by himself,watering to me,let me germinate.I live in freedom.I bloom in the open.I am a wilderness of flowers,Called blue cornflower.I love the atmosphere and the sky,I dot beautiful earth.
