- Description: Day after day, she knots the flowers. If it were only in her powers, she'd grant each wish and each desire, but as it is, works without tire, sends them for those who love, or mourn. She knows no rose without a thorn.

Day after day, she knots the flowers.  
If it were only in her powers,  
she'd grant each wish and each desire,  
but as it is, works without tire,  
sends them for those who love, or mourn.  
She knows no rose without a thorn.
