Cogon Blossoms

Our love as innocent as the cogon blossoms in the valley
As their destination is uncertain and so are we
For this love of ours is young and halfway free
But like the cogon blossoms with the wind we’ll sway
Through the longest day and nights we’ll stay

And if the cogon blossoms will be swept away
Gone with the wind I should say
I’ll hold your hands and kiss it gently
For like the fragile cogon blossoms in a windy day
I’ll be off with the wind but I’ll make way
To return and continue our sweet memories

We’ll wish this cogon blossoms to stay for another century
So other lovers as young as we are will see
Through this soft cogon blossoms
Crown of a tall grass dancing in the valley
These two young hearts in love
Will create another lasting love story
