It blooms once, just once, the white flower.
For one night it smells so, ah!
On such a night, the Queen For One Night surveys the world.
And the light of day blows out the flower's flame for many years.

It glows only for but a few moments,
When all around the world sleeps, ah!
It smells like wormwood and vanilla - the flower, the white flower
On such a night, the Queen For One Night surveys the world.

On such a night, the Queen For One Night surveys the world.
That strange flower knows my secret well:
I fall in love once for many years, ah!
With dreamy eyes we will look in love with the whole world
And we know not for whom we'll bloom, I and that flower.
My secret the white flower knows .
My secret the white flower knows .
My secret the white flower knows .
