Intensely sweet scent blows hither,
Inviting me to draw near.
Where are you, my beauty, a flower to be cherished?
Oh fragile ginger blossom
You beckoned me to dally there.
Drenched in rain we found delight in the grove.
The image of the beloved blossom has left.
But the refreshing scent still lingers on.
