Don’t make me green
     I do not want to be greener than these leaves
Don’t make me blue
    I do not want to be bluer than these skies
Don’t make me purple
   I do not want to be darker than these hills
Don’t make me yellow
   I don’t want to be lighter than this sunlight
Don’t make me fair
   I don’t want to be fairer than you
Don’t make me sad
   I don’t want my tears to dampen this grass
Don’t make me laugh
   I don’t want that rainbow to disappear

You are my sky, my land, my sea
You are the colours I always want to see

What more do I know
That your eyes don’t show?

What more dark and light
Beyond your sight?
