The ashes have fallen
The earth grey and barren
Sprouts spring from their grave
Victorious they spring
To their first day
I may not be big
But my time on earth
I shall use and I shall reach
Into the blue sky
Tears fall freely
From joy and from sorrow
For all that took place
For all that gave place
For the sprout which flowers
For the beating heart
Tears fall freely
From joy and from sorrow
For all that gave place
For all that took place
Tears fall freely
From the grey clouds
Up from the soil
Rise towards the sun
Pure is the feeling
Joy!
Little feet
Shall roam the earth
Without stopping,
Dancing in rings
Joy!
Up from the soil
Rise towards the sun
Pure is the feeling
Joy!
Little feet
Shall roam the earth
Without stopping,
Dancing in rings
Joy!
I may not be big
But my time on earth
I shall use and I shall reach
Into the blue sky
Tears fall freely
From joy and from sorrow
For all that took place
For all that gave place
For the sprout which flowers
For the beating heart
Tears fall freely
From joy and from sorrow
For all that gave place
For all that took place
Tears fall freely
From the grey clouds
