Birds, animals, trees, flowers, fruits;

Grinds hard stones to meal;

Slays emperors, ruins kingdom and

Beats high mountains down.

Its something that each of us devours,
Not just us but birds, beats, trees, and flowers,
Frets iron and nibbles steel,
Toil hard stones to meal,
Exterminates king, collapse town,
And blows the mountains down.

This ring is made of leaves,
Flowers, fruits, twigs and more
And then at wintertime
It hangs on your front door
