IN OUR COURTYARD
SUMMER GUESTS
In our courtyard
in the shade of olive trees
usually
many guests come for the summer
And each one of them
has their own language
and their own way
to say hello.
(x2)
A boy from Italy says "Buon Giorno"
a girl from France says "Bon Jour"
Ken from Japan says "Ohiyo"
when he comes to visit
Hai from Hawaii says "Aloha"
Tanya from Britain says "Hello"
everyone that comes to our home
has a "hello" of their own.
We painted the fence
cut the grass
children of the whole world
will now be able to come
To open to freely
the green gate
and to bring blessings
from afar.
(x2)
Junia from Kenya will tell me "Jambo"
Ian from Greece will say "Kalimera"
Chin from China will say "Nee hau ma"
and will say until tomorrow
Gil from Brazil will say "Bom Dia"
Coco from Morocco will say "Ahalan"
and the blessing that he'll bring me
is the most beautiful of all.
In our courtyard
in the shade of a blooming oak
children of the whole world
come to be guests
in our courtyard
children of the whole wide world
dance in a circle
and say hello.
