Roses
will blossom in our hearts.
The sky's clouds
will wrap us in a misty shawl.
A soft drizzle
will fan a gentle breeze on us.
And in our eyes,
poems too will bloom.
Like a colourful rangoli,
life will become full of colours.
Roses
will blossom in our hearts.
The sky's clouds
will wrap us in a misty shawl.
Oh... oh... oh... oh...
Oh... oh... oh... oh... oh...
Like birds, like birds,
in our young days of flying free,
all our worries, all our worries,
we will let them fly away in the breeze.
Coral jasmine, coral jasmine—
we will admire its blooming beauty.
For hours together with the flowers,
we will chat and laugh away.
In our hearts... in our hearts,
a gentle shower of music falls.
These truly are
the sweetest days in life.
Cherishing these memories with joy,
life will always taste sweet.
Roses
will blossom in our hearts.
The sky's clouds
will wrap us in a misty shawl.
From the flowers, from the flowers,
let us ask for a little honey.
And across the dreams in our eyes,
let us sprinkle that honey.
So that everyone will love us,
let us live with pure affection.
Gifting a sweet smile,
let us steal everyone's hearts.
Childhood days
are the very peak of happiness.
There is no price
that can ever buy it.
In our entire lives,
we will never get it back again.
Roses
will blossom in our hearts.
The sky's clouds
will wrap us in a misty shawl.
A soft drizzle
will fan a gentle breeze on us.
And in our eyes,
poems too will bloom.
Like a colourful rangoli,
life will become full of colours.
Oh... oh... oh... oh...
Oh... oh... oh... oh... oh...
