Do you like the sky at night
When the stars are shining bright?
Do you like it in the day
When 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
Do you like the sky at night
When the stars are shining bright?
Bạn có thích trời đêm
Khi ngàn sao lấp lánh.
Do you like it in the day
When the clouds all go away?
Bạn có thích trời xanh
Khi không một gợn mây
What I like is the morning sun
Shining on me when I run
Tôi yêu ánh nắng mai
Soi sáng khi tôi chạy

And I also like the rain
Pattering on my windowpane
Và cũng yêu cơn mưa
Gõ nhịp lên khung cửa sổ
