La Rosa de Los Vientos

If you plant a dream and water it with your love
And the water of persistence
A flower will bloom in you, and its scent and warmth
Will wrap you up when things go wrong

If you plant an ideal in the land of maybe
And nourish it with envy
It'll be hard to pull out the evil
From your soul, if it’s taken root

And may my light be with you
For life is a garden
Where the good and the bad blend together, and it’s human
Not always knowing how to choose

And if you feel lost
With your eyes, you must see us
Do it with the eyes of your soul, and you’ll find peace
I’ll be your compass rose

If you plant a friendship with care
Nurture it and feed it with patience
Prune it with the truth and transplant it with faith
For it needs time to grow

If you get drunk on passion and don’t cool your heart
Your senses will stutter, and maybe
Only the heat will speak, not reason
It’s wise to count to ten

And may my light be with you
For life is a garden
Where the good and the bad blend together, and it’s human
Not always knowing how to choose

And if you feel lost
With your eyes, you must see us
Do it with the eyes of your soul, and you’ll find peace
I’ll be your compass rose
