O April rain cloud!
O April rain cloud!
Chorus: Ding-dong, ding-dong
Ding-dong, ding-dong
In the very air I breathe,
all the flowers will blossom!
Chorus: Ding-dong, ding-dong
Ding-dong, ding-dong
On my lap, the gentle breeze
Chorus: Nana nana nana na na na
takes a little nap!
Chorus: Nana nana nana na na na
Opening its eyes,
it even asks for a cup of tea...
It is no lie...

Ding-dong, ding-dong
Female: Ahey... ahey...
O April rain cloud!
O April rain cloud!
In the very air I breathe,
all the flowers will blossom!
...
The waterfall tumbling headlong
leaps up and rushes forward.
Even when it crashes on the rocks,
it sways and dances while singing!
Just like that waterfall,
I will dance and sing!
Whatever boulder blocks my way,
I will bravely crash through it!
With moist lips,
my smile will make the world swoon!
Even a weeping night,
I can make it laugh!
Holding the hand of the sleeping sun,
I will rise up!
I have a little pride,
and youth keeps pushing me forward!
I have a little pride,
and youth keeps pushing me forward!
Ding-dong, ding-dong

O April rain cloud!
O April rain cloud!
In the very air I breathe,
all the flowers will blossom!
Cha cha cha… cha cha cha… cha cha cha…
Cha cha cha… cha cha cha… cha cha cha…
Like the sweet age of sixteen,
is there any age that feels so thrilling?
Holding hands with dreams,
living just by taking in the breeze,
my entire heart longs
to gather and pinch every joy!
Like a rushing flood,
my mind seeks to wander everywhere!
I love to travel!
Chorus: Mmm... mmm... mmm
Lying in bed feels sweet and sore!
Chorus: Mmm... mmm... mmm
Turning the rainbow into a swing,
I will stubbornly swing on it!
When the wind blows,
I will turn into a flute!
Life is such a wonder,
you just have to live it and see!
Life is such a wonder,
you just have to live it and see!
Ding-dong, ding-dong

O April rain cloud!
O April rain cloud!
In the very air I breathe,
