Do you like the sky at nightWhen the stars are shining bright?Do you like it in the dayWhen the clouds all go away?

What I like is the morning sun

Shining on me When I run

And I also like the rain

Pattering on my windowpane.

Translation :

Bạn có thích ngắm bầu trời đêm tối

Sao bồi hồi tỏa ánh sáng long lanh

Có thích không những buổi sáng mát xanh

Ngàn mây trắng lững lờ trôi phiêu lãng

Tôi thích lắm nắng sáng mai mùa hạ

Tỏa nhẹ nhàng theo mồi bước chân ta

Thích những khi cuộn mình nghe mưa lạnh

Lộp độp rơi trên ô cửa hiên nhà
