Yellow plum in bloom,
Spring’s dance, hands in brand new costume,
Golden sweet perfume.

Lotus lakes upbeat,
Summer’s Symphony of Peace*,
(Viet) National floral emblem.

Chrysanthemum’s grace,
Autumn’s colors softly fade,
Falling leaves embrace.

Winter’s chill arrives,
Orchids brave the frosty night,
Elegance resigns.
