Apricot Stone

Many, many years ago, when I was a little child

Mama told me you should know our world is cruel and wild

But to make your way through cold and heat

Love is all that you need

I believed her every word, more than anything I heard

But I was too scared to lose my fun

I began to cry a lot and she gave me apricots

Kisses of the earth, fruits of the sun

[01:08.01][02:02.48][02:33.19][02:42.82]Apricot stone, hidden in my hand

[01:11.80][02:06.51][02:37.50][02:47.06]Given back to me from the motherland

[02:11.71]Apricot stone, I will drop it down in the frozen ground

[02:18.43]I’ll just let it make its round

[02:54.93]Apricot stone

Now I see the Northern stars shining brightly in the storm

And I’ve got an avatar of my love to keep me warm

Now I’m not afraid of violent winds

They may blow – they can’t win

May the winter stay away from my harvest night and day

May God bless and keep my cherished fruit

Grow my tree up to the sky, once I waved my home goodbye

I just want to go back to my roots
