Childhood Desires


My Mom Says I Am A Bit Shy
As I Don’t Come Out When The Guests Pass By
But, They Could Also Visit My Room
After All, I Am A Cutie Pie

As Cute As A Button,
I Am The Apple Of Everyone’s Eye
Now That I Have Done My Homework
Should I Go Upstairs And Let The Kite To Fly?

Oops! Can’t Fly The Kite, I Wonder Why
They Say I Am A Child, That’s Why
So What Could I Do As A Child?
Yes! I Can Count The Stars In The Sky

But, Is It Worth Counting The Stars?
May Be I Could Discover Another Sky
Where I Could Locate My Own Stars
To Make Stargazers Feel Jealous Of My Try

But I Don’t Want To Make Any One Jealous
I Only Want Myself To Fly High
Should I Spread My Hands Like A Bird’s Wings
And Bid The Earth Tata, Bye-Bye

But, What If I Fall Down And Get Hurt?
It Will Make My Parents Cry
Finally, I Have Decided To Stay In My Room
And Enjoy Doraemon On Tata Sky
