Oh my, let's link our hands!
Nodding our heads so happily,
Let's travel far away.
Let's chat and enjoy the fresh breeze,
And all along the way,
Let's shower endless love!
This child-like heart of ours,
Let's teach it to walk,
And with little acts of mischief,
Let's charm the world!
This vast, wide world,
We can pull with just a finger.
In this delightful madness,
From now on, brand new
Paths can be opened.
A playful, roaring breeze
Sweeps us into its embrace,
And the heart is brimming over
With a whole new celebration!
A playful, roaring breeze
Sweeps us into its embrace,
Take one step after another,
And change your heart... oh...
[Humming...]
To laugh heartily,
We can easily learn!
Chattering non-stop every day,
We can keep on talking!
To do everything we love,
We can get used to it!
When you truly enjoy it,
Life turns sweet on its own, doesn't it?
Once today slips away,
Will this moment ever return?
It's the little joys of life
That we truly missed out on.
The earth pulls us down
With all its affection,
Just jump and see for yourself,
What else is there to do? Oh...
A playful, roaring breeze
Sweeps us into its embrace,
Take one step after another,
And change your heart... oh...
Oh my, let's link our hands!
Nodding our heads so happily,
Let's travel far away.
Let's chat and enjoy the fresh breeze,
And all along the way,
Let's shower endless love!
This child-like heart of ours,
Let's teach it to walk,
And with little acts of mischief,
Let's charm the world!
This vast, wide world,
We can pull with just a finger.
In this delightful madness,
From now on, brand new
Paths can be opened.
A playful, roaring breeze
Sweeps us into its embrace,
And the heart is brimming over
With a whole new celebration!
A playful, roaring breeze
Sweeps us into its embrace,
Take one step after another,
And change your heart... oh...
