In The Mandarin's Orchid Garden  audio clip
Somehow by fate misguided
A buttercup resided
In the mandarin's orchid garden
A buttercup that did not please
The lovely peace of such a place
And so it simply shriveled up
And begged each orchids pardon
The little buttercup in the orchid garden
The bees keep buzzing daily
And kiss the orchids gaily
In the mandarin's orchid garden
A buttercup sighed longingly
But love was not for such as she
And so one day it shriveled up and died
Still begging pardon
The lonely buttercup in the orchid garden
I too have been misguided
To long have I resided
In the mandarin's orchid garden
And too for friendliness I yearn
I do not know which way to turn
Alone must I keep shriveled up
To beg each lady's pardon
A lonely buttercup
In the orchid garden
