Ev'ry flower tells a story
In colors and perfume
But there's one that's filled with glory
Wherever it may bloom
Pretty red hibiscus
I'd admired you right from the start
Pretty red hibiscus
You're the flower of my heart
Ev'ry day you're fairer
Than the fairest flower that grows
Pretty red hibiscus
You're beautiful, everyone knows
Though you may not be scented
Like the other flowers are
But when the day has ended
You're as fair as an evening star
Pretty red hibiscus
I've admired you right from the start
Pretty red hibiscus
You're the flower of my heart
