[Verse 1]
On Saturday, we were at our villa.
A small field beside the property was covered in yellow.
My wife said, “The rape blossoms are in bloom.”
I replied, “Those are mustard spinach flowers.”
[Pre-Chorus 1]
She asked, “Can we eat them?”
I answered, “The flowers and leaves.”
[Chorus 1]
A message from the spring breeze,
A small gift arrived for us,
Flowers bloomed in abundance,
And birdsong called to us.
[Verse 2]
“Who planted them?” She asked.
“The previous tenants,” I said.
“Let’s take a closer look,” she said.
“Sure, let’s walk slowly,” I replied.
[Pre-Chorus 2]
“Are we going to harvest them?” She asked.
“Yes, we can eat as much as we can,” I replied.
[Chorus 2]
A message from the spring breeze,
A small gift arrived for us,
Flowers bloomed in abundance,
And birdsong called to us.
[Instrumental Solo]
[Verse 3]
“There’s a different kind over there,” she said.
“That’s leaf mustard,” I said.
“Those yellow-green leaves over there,” she said.
“That’s Chinese cabbage,” I replied.
[Pre-Chorus 3]
There’s so much, it’s like a dream,” she said with a big smile.
“All of this is free,” she said. “Yes, it is,” Ireplied.
[Chorus 3]
A message from the spring breeze,
A small gift arrived for us,
Flowers bloomed in abundance,
And birdsong called to us.
[Bridge]
“Let’s have this for lunch,” she said.
“I’ll have some mustard spinach stir-fried,” I replied.
“These leaf mustard and Chinese cabbage are…” I replied.
[Final Chorus]
A message from the spring breeze,
A small gift arrived for us,
Flowers bloomed in abundance,
And birdsong called to us.
[Instrumental Solo]
[Fade Out]
Sound:
“Lush, meticulously produced modern AOR with strong Smooth Jazz Fusion influences. Dreamy and uplifting atmosphere. High-fidelity studio sheen.”
rhythm section
“130 BPM. Clean, driving 16-beat from an acoustic drum kit. Kick on 1 and 3, crisp snare on 2 and 4. Polished sound with precise 16th-note hi-hat work. A prominent, funky slap electric bass playing syncopated 16th-note melodic lines.”
backing instruments
“Brightly miked Yamaha C7 grand piano playing rich, shimmering major 7th and add9 chords. A ‘side’ electric guitar (Fender Stratocaster style) with heavy chorus effect, playing sparkling arpeggios. Lush, sweeping legato string section and a powerful, harmonized horn section (sax/trumpet) with bright stabs.”
vocal effect
“Clear male tenor lead with an airy female harmony vocalist layered behind. Production features generous hall reverb, subtle pitch correction (autotune), and occasional phrase echo delay for rhythmic flair.”
A fusion of AOR with a 16-beat rhythm, featuring acoustic drums, slap electric bass, acoustic piano, side electric guitar, a horn section, strings, falsetto male vocals, female harmonies, and jazzy improvisation with a chord progression and chromatic approach.
