When it is older I will wear heaven's dress, I will fly through the air, tracing colors and granting desires, I will laugh with the clouds, I will play like child with a thousand and one friends, I will cross oceans and valleys. I will climb like a lark to the peaks higher, sowing hopes...

When it is older
I will wear heaven's dress,
I will fly through the air, tracing
colors and granting desires,
I will laugh with the clouds, I will play like
child with a thousand and one friends,
I will cross oceans and valleys.
I will climb like a lark to the peaks
higher, sowing hopes...

Ah, when I grow up, I want to be
lit butterfly, and then,
wake up and fly through the air, dancing
a thousand unimaginable dances,
and go up to the top, and go down to the bottom,
and all the summits have been reached….

Ah, when I grow up, I will fill my soul
of wisdom,
I will fill my being with beautiful feelings
that I will spread over the earth...
for sowing in her…pure love and
sweet longing

When I grow up, I want to continue dancing,
Even though my feet hurt,
Although my wrinkled skin refuses to let me move,
because my body will be old, but in my soul,
there in my soul, I will continue to be the reflection of the love of my God who walks with me, His Mercies,
His love gave me up,
and I flew with him forever.
I turned eternally to His love.
and so, next to Him, I was always,
when the times of life,
They made me older.
Eternally, God and I.

Ah…when I'm older…
