Here is a new song. I don't know the tune yet. It sorts of wanders from theme to theme but basically she is calling other young women of the world to come and help her. mg

FLOWER OF LEBANON

There is a flower of Lebanon that blooms in days of woe
It blooms in times and places where other flowers can't grow
He plucked for me these flowers when the bombs began to fall
He called me Flower of Lebanon the fairest flower of all

He's buried in the rubble now I will not moan and weep
I will not show you any tears my sorrow is too deep
When your truest love is dead your home and family gone
There's only one thing you can do and that's to carry on

Flower of Afghanistan and Flower of Peru
I bid you come to Lebanon and do what you can do
Come with gauze to bind our wounds and dogs to dig us out
I'll guide you all through Lebanon I know the safest route

Flower of South Africa and Flower of Madrid
When you come to Lebanon I'll show you where we hid
I'll show you where we used to live the caves where we live now
With food and water almost gone but help will come somehow

Flower of America and Flower of Ukraine
Please come here to Lebanon and help us to explain
To young and old and wounded that peace will come again
Oh Flower of Cambodia help us to begin

So come here all ye nurses and come ye engineers
Carpenters and teachers in spite of all your fears
Come to this land of beauty where so many have been killed
Come to help us live again and help us to rebuild

Young women of the world attend and hear my solemn vow
I'll help you in your trials to come if you will help us now
Wherever people suffer they will not be alone
And I the Flower of Lebanon will make this cause my own.
