Original text and translations

English text

If I planted a garden, if I carefully sowed
If I nourished each tiny seed
If I tended it well and helped it to grow
What a beautiful harvest I'd reap

In my life, like a garden, there are seeds to be sown
I must choose with the greatest care
Planting only what's good, so I can be sure
Only beautiful things will grow there

I am planting my garden every day of my life,
And the harvest is mine to keep
If I plant seeds of faith, of honor and truth
What a beautiful harvest I'll reap.
