Thousands and hundreds of thousands are your white moons,
O sky, is your milky light on this earth?
My colors may vary, but you are the light,
Melodies may vary, but you are the language,
Roads may vary, but you are the path,
Shower joy upon me forever.
Thousands and hundreds of thousands are your white moons,
O sky, is your milky light on this earth?
Mmm mm mm mm mmm mm m mm
Until I heard your song,
I was living in the dark;
As the light of love,
You were born for me.
If it were just once or twice, I could have spoken it,
I would have worn out my tongue thanking you.
O sky, O sky, your song is everywhere!
My colors may vary, but you are the light,
Melodies may vary, but you are the language,
Roads may vary, but you are the path,
Shower joy upon me forever.
Mmm, flowing like blood, your...
Ra ba ba ba ba ba ba
Soothing like a kiss, your...
Mmm mmm mmm
Even at the highest peak, there is none like you,
In this world, you have no equal.
O sky, O sky, your song is everywhere!
The skies may vary, but you are the light,
Melodies may vary, but you are the language,
Roads may vary, but you are the path,
Shower joy upon me forever.
