What you will say,
my heart knows.
What I will say,
your heart knows.
What we will say,
our silence knows.
And that silence
speaks millions of languages.
The best language in the world
is the language of silence you speak.
What you will say,
my heart knows.
What I will say,
your heart knows.
Naana nanan naa naa
Beside the railway track,
my life was just a little flower plant.
Through the burning sun and rain,
your hand came to protect it.
What is a river, what is an ocean?
After all, isn't everything just rain?
"Your cloud" and "my cloud"—
isn't it wrong to say they are different?
In life, some bonds
we meet halfway.
Yet the moment we see them,
we see the rest of our lives... hey ey!
The best language in the world
is the language of silence you speak.
Silence is like an ocean,
a place where storms sleep.
Piercing right through the storm
is the instrument of your words.
In the cloud called silence,
the language you speak is like the breeze.
As those gusts of wind collide,
all our words become rain.
To welcome the rainy breeze,
shall we open the window?
To hear the language spoken by the rain,
shall we put away our umbrellas? Oh oo...
The best language in the world
is the language of silence we speak.
What you will say,
my heart knows.
What I will say,
your heart knows.
What we will say,
our silence knows.
And that silence
speaks millions of languages... ey... ey!
Naana nanan ne… (x4)
