O Xilema Leva

Through the leaf CO2 and the light the plant will absorb
And the root draws the raw sap from the earth
It has a parenchyma
Its name is chlorophyllian
The light, in the chloroplast, enters
And will excite the electrons
Photosynthesis will occur

And the xylem carries
(Carries)
The raw sap: salts and lots of water
(Carries)
The chlorophyll and the light to activate
photosynthesis
And the phloem carries
(Carries)
Glucose to the most distant tissues
(Carries)
In the elaborated sap to give you
The strength to live

The strength to live

Through the Malpighi ring
Organic sap will no longer
Descend to the ground to feed
The root, which needs to continue
Under the earth to take the inorganic sap

And the sugar doesn't descend
But the inorganic sap will rise
For a while in the plant
photosynthesis still occurs
But soon it will succumb

And the xylem carries

The raw sap: salts and lots of water

The chlorophyll and the light to activate
photosynthesis
And the phloem carries
