Do you like the sky at night
When the stars are shining bright?
Bạn có thích bầu trời ban đêm
Khi ngàn sao đang lấp lánh
Do you like it in the day
When the clouds all go away?
Bạn có thích trời ban ngày
Khi những đám mây bay đi

What I like is the morning sun
Shining on me when I run
Còn tôi yêu nắng sớm ban mai
Toả ánh sáng khi tôi chạy
Vµ t«i còng yªu nh÷ng c¬n m­a
Gâ tõng nhÞp lªn khung cöa sæ
And I also like the rain
Pattering on my windowpane
Learn by heart the words you have just learnt
Prepare the listening lesson
