Stars in the sky
Nelly Lantsman 1980 (Tashkent)
Do you ever look at the sky?
Do you ever feel like you could stand up and fly?
Ive been doing it since I was a child
Man, the sky is so expansive and wild!
Do you ever see the starts dancing at night?
Like they’re playing a game and throwing their light.
They dance around me when I look up
They’ll dance forever and never stop.
They’ll be dancing long after I’m gone
I hope they continue to shine for my son.
