Representative lyrics
English (Original Language)
1. This is the sound of a spiderspinning her web around.This is the sound of a snowflakefluttering to the ground.This is the sound of a black swangliding across a lake.This is the sound of a bush full of lilacsthe spring breezes shake.
2. This is the sound of a cometshimmering through the skies.This is the sound of a white mothas it frolics and flies.This is the sound of a wide fieldripening into hay.This is the sound of a child in the chapelon primary day.
