Be happy, child, while you are still young,

You're still living in spring,

And your thoughts are still light,

And your dreams are still clear.

Your dreams will float away with your thoughts

Away to distant worlds.

Don't cut the wings of the blue-winged dove,

Let it fly freely!

Do you remember a fairy tale?

How she once brought

That healing, living water

To a little bird?
