Lyrics:

Somehow by fate misguided,A buttercup residedIn the mandarin's orchid garden.A buttercup that did not pleaseThe lovely peace of such a place.And so it simply [shined] aboveAnd begged each orchids pardon,The little buttercup in the orchid garden.The bees keep passing dailyAnd kiss the orchids dearly,In the mandarin's orchid garden.A buttercup [side] longing leaf,But love was not for such as she.And so under the tree of love hanged I[In The Mandarin's Orchid Garden lyrics on http://www.elyricsworld.com]Still begging pardon,The lonely buttercup in the orchid garden.I too have been misguided;To long have I residedIn the mandarin's orchid garden.And all for friendliness I am,I do not know which way to talk. Alone must I keep [praying God]To beg each lady's pardon.A lonely buttercupIn the orchid garden.
