Blue Flag (Wild Iris) was the flower that sparked this. But of course, Mary loves her roses.

Lyrics

Blue was always your colour
Mother of a son
Blue for loyalty and wisdom
Befits a Holy One
Blessed Mary
Descend like a dove
Let me feel your presence
Grace poured down from above

Blessed Mary
May the scent of roses
Pierce my heart
Make me see
The sacrifice you gave
For me to be free

Blue was how you felt then
Mother of a son
Whose destiny was fulfilled in death
Gave life for everyone
Blessed Mary
How did it feel
To see your child upon the cross
So much gained from so much lost

Blessed Mary
May the scent of roses
Pierce my heart
Make me see
The sacrifice you gave
For me to be free

Let this flag fly forever
Clothed in colours of your beauty
Let truth and wisdom reign
In eternity we'll meet again
