A garden of God, a swing in the moonlight,
That is what our home has become.
Huddled in the pouring rain, warming up together,
That is what our nest has become.
Clustered close like a bunch of plantains,
Holding firm like the roots of life,
Let us live our lives right here together.
With our love never fading,
Without putting on any masks,
Let us laugh here like innocent children.
Whatever may come...
Whatever comes,
Whatever goes,
Family is heaven itself,
Our bonds are sculpted works of art.
Hoo oo ooo ooo ho
Hoo oo ooo ooo oo
Hoo oo ooo ooo ho
Hoo oo ooo ooo oo
A garden of God, a swing in the moonlight,
That is what our home has become.
Huddled in the pouring rain, warming up together,
That is what our nest has become.
We may travel from town to town searching for a living,
Standing far and wide like lone trees.
Yet we will come together and support each other like pillars.
We will tease each other, and then plead to make peace.
Without any anger, we will shower each other with love.
We will fight, and then say sorry.
We will sleep together under a single blanket.
Whatever may come...
Whatever comes,
Whatever goes,
Family is heaven itself,
Our bonds are sculpted works of art.
Hoo oo ooo ooo ho
Hoo oo ooo ooo oo
Hoo oo ooo ooo ho
Hoo oo ooo ooo oo
A garden of God, a swing in the moonlight,
That is what our home has become.
Huddled in the pouring rain, warming up together,
That is what our nest has become.
We will share stories and wander around playing,
Content with just a handful of rice to soothe our hunger.
This has become a home where doors are never locked.
The women are angels, the men are flower seeds,
And the children are like shining stars.
To help them touch the glowing moon,
These bonds carry them upon their shoulders.
Whatever may come...
Whatever comes,
Whatever goes,
Family is heaven itself,
Our bonds are sculpted works of art.
Hoo oo ooo ooo ho
Hoo oo ooo ooo oo
Hoo oo ooo ooo ho
Hoo oo ooo ooo oo
