Looking forward to seeing this flower in person one day!
Edelweiss has been featured in many songs. This German word means noble and white and was known as the flower of emperors and kings.
When viewing some of my great aunts' memorabalia I found a paper with these words featured:
Grace
(Edelweiss Melody)
Bless our friends,
Bless our food.
Come, O' Lord and sit with us.
May our talk
Glow with peace,
Come with your love and surround us.
Friendship and peace -
May it bloom and glow,
Bloom and grow forever.
Bless our friends.
Bless our food.
Come, O Lord and surround us!
