To my upright and tenacious farther! I always love you!
You are the aspen and the oak,
the marvelous evergreen and the pine.
You are the spartina native to the salt marshes
and the sunflower under the sun.
You are the imperial lion in the prairie
and the free eagle soaring in sky.
and the free eagle soaring in sky.

However, you are not the mimose in the grassland,
the epiphyllum in the garden,
or the mouse ready to escape.
And you are certainly not the lamb flinches in the sheepfold.
There is just no way you are the lamb flinches in the sheepfold.
