Wings, soft flower-wings,
you gave me, my love.
I flew, oh I flew,
up in the sky right now.
For a little firefly,
lightning itself turns into wings
the moment love arrives.
Through every single nerve,
it surges through, my life, my life—
this electric spark of youth.
My love,
my life, my life,
because of you, there is joy.
My dearest life...
Wings, soft flower-wings,
you gave me, my love.
I flew, oh I flew,
up in the sky right now.
Falling onto the earth,
inside the very first raindrop,
the journey of a waterfall
begins right there, my love.
Reaching for the rainbow
with my own hands,
I gather its colors and brush them on.
Smiling softly,
your face
showers a thousand flowers
all over me.
My love,
oh, it showers a thousand flowers
all over me,
my dearest life.
Wings, soft flower-wings,
you gave me, my love.
I flew, oh I flew,
up in the sky right now.
Haaa haa haa
Singing musical notes,
fluttering on your eyelids,
is a heart, my life,
oh, my sweet, proud girl.
With your eyes,
you plucked the stars
and made my soul
sparkle and shine.
The one you drew,
a paper heart,
my love, my love,
echoes with a heartbeat.
My love,
the one you drew,
that paper heart is beating now,
my dearest life.
Wings, soft flower-wings,
you gave me, my love.
I flew, oh I flew,
up in the sky right now.
