GOING UP!

Light and azure are in the sky
and suddenly the day appears
Clouds turn to water,
a rainbow rises in the sky

A variety of shades and a light of the sky
that colour the world
And it's many times more beautiful,
and it makes everyone smile

Chorus
Going up! We'll sing together
When the joy blossoms in the heart
Going up! We ll sing together
Great and small, like a rainbow in the clouds

Wanting to come closer to each other,
asking to dream together
Designing a rainbow to one another,
a thousand colours for peace

So we come and sing tonight
from the four corners of the world
The joy in the heart is not enough,
a moment of light for everyone

Chorus
Going up...

And the song strengthens in the meantime,
bringing the hearts together
Angels spread their wings
and the candles are lit

Chorus - twice
Going up...

Na na na na, na na na na na
Na na na na na
Going up! We ll sing together
Great and small, like a rainbow in the clouds
Like a rainbow in the clouds,
like a rainbow in the clouds.
