The treasure at the heart of the rose
is your own heart's treasure.
Scatter it as the rose does:
your pain becomes hers to measure.

Scatter it in a song,
or in one great love's desire.
Do not resist the rose
lest you burn in its fire.

The Rose The treasure at the heart of the rose is your own heart's treasure. Scatter it as the rose does: your pain becomes hers to measure. Scatter it in a song, or in one great love's desire. Do not resist the rose lest you burn in its fire. - in ITALIAN: La rosa Il tesoro che è al cuore della rosa è il tesoro del tuo proprio cuore. Spargilo come fa la rosa: il tuo dolore diventa così la sua misura. Spargilo in una canzone, o nel desiderio di un grande amore. Non resistere la rosa se non vuoi bruciare nel suo fuoco.
