Seals & Crofts - Windflowers Lyrics






Windflowers, my father told me not to go near them, he feared them always,
Said they carried him away.
Windflowers, I couldn't wait to touch them, to smell them, I held them closely.
Now I cannot break away.

Their sweet bouquet disappears like a vapor in the desert. Take a warning, son.

Windflowers, their beauty captures every young dreamer who lingers near them.
Ancient windflowers, I love you.

    my song...

  28. R.... ....

    I wonder what the song is about. could it be warning against being hooked on girls of low repute or drug addiction?

    R.... ....

    It's about getting attached to anything not being such a great thing .

  29. r.... l....

    IT'S A SONGS WHAT HAZARDOUS,THAT THE DRUGS CAN CAUSE,EVEN THROW AWAY THE FAMILY TIES,IS IT VALUABLE.

  30. M.... 7....

    I haven't heard this song in about 45 years, FTW. Didn't understand it way back then, as a youngster. Ha! I saw Seals & Crofts perform live once, in the mid 1990s and never knew this was one of their songs.

  31. J.... C....

    A full completed music and no others can compare with this one.

    雋永。老歌真的好聽。好像每個音符裡都有故事。

  35. m.... ....

    风信子。。。wind flowers!多可爱又惹人遐思的风花。。。那白白轻柔的茸毛就随着风絮翩翩起舞,充斥着整片天空,
    把那信息飘递给你。。。那画面犹如冬雪纷飞,美不胜收,如临其境,好真切!
    瞬间,我融入了那说唱者的音乐故事里!
    非常喜欢开头新颖的创意。。。深深触动,震撼我心!
    那把落寞又让人动容的嗓音,随着简单的吉他声说着说着自己的故事,流露着物是人非的伤感无奈。。。忽然,曲风一转,歌声响起,伴随那美妙的旋律琴弦,有如一首诗情画意的古诗,充满了地中海的韵味!
    我又不知不觉沉浸着,陶醉着。。。
    - 小红豆

    「有意思……有意思!」

    其實只要你看清楚每一句歌詞就會知道,這首歌是個隱喻,歌中所說的其實是罌粟花

    I have read some Chinese comments about windflower. They got it mixed up with Poppy Opium flowers. They are two different kinds of flowers. Check your information before you make a comment. Internet is so convenient nowadays. Enid Phillips from Houston, Texas.

    R.... P....

    Enid, I think the lyrics' kind of leading the thought.
    "My father told me not to go near them" - why? because father knew.
    "I held them closely now I that I cannot break away" - simply hooked
    There's a Chinese song about Poppy Opium flowers, telling people to refrain oneself from it's attractiveness. The lyrics are more or less the same and meaningful.
    Peter Chung from Hong Kong

    The first time I saw S&C was at the Auditorium Theater in Chicago.  The house was half filled.  The show was great.  They invited us all across the street to the Congress Hotel(?) where they talked to us about their faith; Baha'i.  The next time I saw them after Summer Breeze hit the airwaves.  Same venue but now the only seats I could get were the last row of the last balcony!  After the concert, they invited us all to stay in the theater to learn about their faith.   Unborn Child ended the hits but, perhaps, they had run their musical course anyway.  Either way, brave to take a stand, plenty of great music to cherish, and ambassadors for their religion.  Rock on, boys!閱讀更多

    WINDFLOWERS

    아네모네~♡

    오랜 기다림 끝에
    서로의 손끝이 닿았을 텐데

    오랜 기다림 후에
    서로의 마음이 닿았을 텐데

    무엇이 아쉬워
    잃을까 애를 태웠을까

    그저
    바람처럼
    잠깐 따뜻한 온기 품은 입김
    불어 넣고 갔을 텐데

    달구어진
    몸은
    식을 줄 모르고

    그 바람을 기다리누나

    애처로운 그대
    사랑스런 그대
    아름다운 그대

    그대 이름은
    슬픔을 간직한
    아네모네여라~~~♡

  94. L.... Y....

    Very high quality thx for making this beautiful video of windflowers!

  95. L.... ....

    Thank you. The song thoughts were inspired by Hidden Words #18 by Baha'u'llah and sung well here by our dear kind mystic friends.. "..a new garden hath appeared, round which circle the denizens of the realm on high and the immortal dwellers of the exalted paradise. Strive, then, that ye may attain that station, that ye may unravel the mysteries of love from its windflowers and learn the secret of divine and consummate wisdom from its eternal fruits.."

    L.... ....

    Absolutely lovely, captivating song. But how come then, it sounds very much like a warning, like an entrapment, an illusion? Not an entry to paradise. The poppy explanation below would appear a better fit.

    L.... ....

    The song may sound like a warning as becoming a follower of Baha'iu'llah (Baha'i Faith) is not for those who are careless of spiritual matters and are tied to the traditions of their fathers.

    L.... ....

    Thanks. I'll try to relate that to the song. Perhaps it is a little like (me) saying that "a little religion can be a dangerous thing". Because it artificially inflates the ego without any real change or benefit.

    L.... ....

    Went looking for Wind Flowers (as a fun trip / joke) in the 80s on Mt. Carmel, Isreal, with Jimmy Seal's brother, Danny (aka England Dan of England Dan and John Ford Coley reknown) We were on a Baha'i Pilgrimage & had a wonderful time. I became a Baha'i with many other soldiers in Viet Nam - War teaches Peace... Good luck on your path. Baha'i is a New Era Garden...
    “At the gate of the garden, some stand and look within, but do not care to enter. Others step inside, behold its beauty, but do not penetrate far. Still others encircle this garden, inhaling the fragrance of the flowers; and having enjoyed its full beauty, pass out again by the same gate. But there are always some who enter, and becoming intoxicated with the splendor of what they behold, remain for life to tend the garden." - Abdul-Baha

  96. C.... C....

    I guess this was where William Shatner got the inspiration for his singing.
