My little prince, my king... oh...
My little prince, my king... oh...
My little prince, my king... oh... oh...
My little prince, my king...
You alone are my companion.
From now on, you alone are my companion.
Lullaby, lullaby...
A lullaby for my beloved who reached the shore.
Lullaby, lullaby...
A lullaby for my moon resting on my lap.
My little one,
My golden boy,
My sweet darling,
The apple of my eye,
A good time has finally arrived,
My precious son.
It gave me the blessing I prayed for,
My precious son.
All the wealth and joy in this world,
Is the son I brought to life.
I do not need anything else,
My precious son.
Lullaby, lullaby...
A lullaby for my beloved who reached the shore.
Oh, reach out and touch it,
The sky is your only limit!
In every corner of the world,
There is no one equal to you.
The time has come, the time has come,
For you to conquer the world.
The time has come, the time has come,
For you to win.
It will make me soar with pride,
My child who carries my name.
My little one,
My golden boy,
My sweet darling,
The apple of my eye,
A good time has finally arrived,
My precious son.
It gave me the blessing I prayed for,
My precious son.
All the wealth and joy in this world,
Is the son I brought to life.
I do not need anything else,
My precious son.
