Tale of Edelweiss
Damsel Salatan 1997 (Philippines)
Have you ever heard
The tale of Edelweiss?
A modest flower
bloomed in
Snowy night,
Without the
Apollo's presence
In her life.
She's indeed
A Damsel
in distress,
Yet she still
Finds a way
To shine and
Grew in her
Own Light.
For she knew
She symbolizes
True grit-
Passion,
Determination
To radiate light
and warmth
from within.
Her unique story
Teach us to rise,
Live and grow
As an edelweiss.
