The children of the world tend to fight

when love is sought out like a rare flower.

They do not know of love's sharp bite,

nor of love's great power.

To those who seek this great unknown

good luck I wish upon their hand.

For the world is filled with hearts like stone

and one's love you can not command.

As seasons come and seasons go

love's power grows strong and mighty.

Love overcomes the tales of woe,

shining into the world as Aphrodite.

Let this be a lesson you hear,

for love is a great, yet terrible thing to fear.
