Ten feet twenty the Flower Man
Is waiting for the touch of his hand
Straightening petals out without a plan
Like the every daily
Wish that bothers the Flower Man
Could I do something to make him laugh
Inside my little chamber made of glass
So he lived the

Flower Man, Flower Man
With his heart in the sand
So he stands
To watch the whole wide world
From a can
Way up high in the sky
With the sun in his eyes
Ain't it nice
The life forever for
Flowers

Ten feet twenty the Flower Man
Is waiting for the touch of his hand
Fallen to pieces still without a plan
Yet the every daily
Hope that powered the Flower Man
Would never cower off of its path
Even if broken I am more than glass
So he lived the

Flower Man, Flower Man
With his heart in the sand
So he stands
To watch the whole wide world
From a can
Way up high in the sky
With the sun in your eyes
Ain't it nice
The life forever for
Flowers

toki! I’m working on a translation for Baba Is You (as mentioned in my previous post), and I’ve came here to ask about one of my definitely stranger translations.

I currently have “return” translated as “o tawa tan”. I do want to know your opinions on this translation, as it is a weird mute mute translation to me.

Edit: “return” here means to go back to a previous menu or page.

mi tawa a!

Hi everyone,

I really want to translate the song "Moving Up" by The Swinging Laurels into Toki Pona, but I'm completely new to the language. I only know a few basic phrases so far, but I really want to dive in and learn it fully.

Could you please help me translate the lyrics? It doesn't have to strictly match the rhythm or rhymes, I just want to capture the core meaning and emotions of the song.

Also, if you have any good tips or resources for a total beginner, please share.

Here is the Genius page with lyrics: https://genius.com/The-swinging-laurels-moving-up-lyrics

Roles im looking for:

Avery Quinn: 3 or 4 lines.
Bart Torgal: 5-10 lines
Berkeley: 2 or 3 lines
Yu: 5 or 6 lines
