A melody of the early morning sky,
I sang deep within my heart at this hour.
In the gentle breeze and in my dreams, joy fills every day,
and everything I see is pure sweetness!
This young woman's heart sings on...
A melody of the early morning sky,
I sang deep within my heart at this hour.
At every doorstep, many desires are born,
and in every life, the path keeps changing.
A day will come when life is as beautiful as my dreams,
a day will come when life is as beautiful as my dreams.
Keep believing that everything is sweet forever, oh heart,
stay bonded with joy as your true friend, oh heart!
As long as you do, you will find peace.
A melody of the early morning sky,
I sang deep within my heart at this hour.
In the gentle breeze and in my dreams, joy fills every day,
and everything I see is pure sweetness!
This young woman's heart sings on...
A melody of the early morning sky...
This is the time when every need turns into a blessing,
this is the season when all you seek comes to you.
Everything you ever wished for will surely come true,
everything you ever wished for will surely come true!
A young woman's heart dreams so many dreams,
drifting everywhere in a procession of thoughts,
for this youthful age to cherish and rejoice...
A melody of the early morning sky,
I sang deep within my heart at this hour.
In the gentle breeze and in my dreams, joy fills every day,
and everything I see is pure sweetness!
This young woman's heart sings on...
La laalla la lala laalla laalla laalla
La laalla la thara rarara tharara raarra
