'May I meet you soon, my yet unseen child,'
+
I always wished as I stroked my belly
+
Fu-u-u fu-u-u I wonder how your face looks like?
+
Fu-u-u fu-u-u I wonder how your voice sounds like?
+
I see myself reflected in your big eyes
+
as your tears trickled down your cheeks
+
'Mama, mama, come, I'm finished with my food!'
+
'Ta-ta-ta, ta-ta-ta, come, let's go out for a walk!'
+
You hugged your knees, crying out your eyes
+
Tell me why, I'll listen to everything
+
Don't worry, I'm not going anywhere
+
No matter what happens, I'll be with you
+
I love your face when you laugh
+
Even when you're down, please try to cheer up
+
'Ru-ru-ru, ru-ru-ru, come, let's sing a song'
+
'U-o-on, u-o-on, come, shout your hearts out'
+
Ki-ra-ra, ki-ra-ra, may you grow free from care
+
Run through snow, count the clouds, play in the rain,
+
get blown by the wind, get buried in flowers, make your grass flutes sing
+
with your four legs, with your two legs
+
No matter which of the two roads you choose,
+
I would probably no longer be able to gaze at you from afar
+
Someday, when you set out on your journey,
+
I'm sure I will see you off with a smile
+
U-u-u, u-u-u, but perhaps I'll be a bit lonely
+
U-o-on, u-o-on Please, live strong
+
