Apple Blossom (蘋果花) - Esperanza Spalding

Mother of the Spring

Her branches cradle slipping

Buds yawning open

Welcome by an aging man

He greets them fondly

With memories of when

Her bows were arms that

Held him as a younger man

Together they would marvel at

The birth of Springtime

Now he stands beneath

The apple blossoms

Every year where they

Used to go walking

And he tells Her about

The summer and the autumn

The winter in his heart

And their Apple blossoms

In summer they would dream

Of being three and smile

Imagining how round

As the apples on the ground

That fall

They loved and waited

But winter came too soon

Before their seed could bloom

She wilted from the chill

And all felt cold and still

Now he stands beneath

The apple blossoms

Every year where they

Use to go walking

And he tells Her about

The summer and the autumn

The winter in his heart

And their Apple blossoms

As he opened the

Earth to receive her

He prayed heaven would

Be waiting to meet her

He kisses her cold cheek goodbye

But he couldn't surrender

The hope they had sired

So in her fallen hands

He placed a seed from

Their favorite tree

And he laid her to rest

Beneath the blanket of white

Til they'd meet again

In the springtime

Now he stands beneath

The apple blossoms

Every year where they

Used to go walking

And from above

She's always watching

But her body lies beneath

The apple blossoms

Apple blossoms

Blossom

Blossom

Blossom

Mother of the Spring

Her branches cradle slipping buds

Slowly (they) unopen

'Welcome by an aging man'

He greets them fondly

Fondly

Her branches cradle slipping buds
