yesterday afternoon I was singing,
yesterday afternoon I was singing
while my daughter was sleeping
and the almonds were crying, and the
almonds were crying from
infinite joy
Chorus:
how wonderful is my girl
how wonderful is when she sleeps
that seems a poppy
among green wheat fields
the sun was playing hide and seek,
was playing hide and seek
with lemon trees
The almond trees were looming and from her
window were looking to see
a bright star sleeping
