you've been chosen with love

to bloom alongside me

here in the house of the Lord.

to bloom alongside me

here in the house of the Lord.

Even if the wind

passes by offering you freedom,

even if the sun tries

to speak to the world,

don't forget:

you've been chosen with love

to bloom alongside me

here in the house of the Lord.

you've been chosen with love

to bloom alongside me

and pray to your Lord.

If suffering or worry

distresses the heart,

even if mercy abandons you,

don't forget:

you've been chosen with love

to bloom alongside me

here in the house of the Lord.

Cactus flower, little flower

you've been chosen with love

to bloom alongside me

and pray to your Lord.
