As the seeds are planted beneath the soil With the sun's heat, water starts to boil A sprout came out one after the other But the gardener is not satisfied, he planted another. The earth is rich, the seeds abound As merry as a kid-whistles a lovely sound As moments melt into the years The gardener's garden's lush, suddenly fell into tears. Looking at all the seeds he planted A plentiful sight, like his wish was granted Like a scar in his heart is starting to heal But too many seeds is not ideal The garden's vast, the seeds are many A single stream can't water them all, not enough money One heart can't nurture, one soul can't bear The weight of the world, the seeds that wither and spare Left with no choice, gardener is in despair He left some seeds, enough for the stream to care Too many thoughts he carried, a rest he needs Said "Why did I plant too many seeds? "

One too many
As the seeds are planted beneath the soil With the sun's heat, water starts to boil A sprout came out one after the other But the gardener is not satisfied, he planted another. The earth is rich, the seeds abound As merry as a kid-whistles a lovely sound As moments melt into the years The gardener's garden's lush, suddenly fell into tears. Looking at all the seeds he planted A plentiful sight, like his wish was granted Like a scar in his heart is starting to heal But too many seeds is not ideal The garden's vast, the seeds are many A single stream can't water them all, not enough money One heart can't nurture, one soul can't bear The weight of the world, the seeds that wither and spare Left with no choice, gardener is in despair He left some seeds, enough for the stream to care Too many thoughts he carried, a rest he needs Said "Why did I plant too many seeds? "
