Fireflies - Ida Landsberg

I walk around on a hot summer day

through the fields smelling sage and rosemary,

picking up all the berries (that) I see

and I hope he will be there, maybe

Yesterday was a nice pretty day

All my sweets gathered 'round me, they’ll be

very happy when my wish

one day comes true — that may be…

Then all the stars will sing my

song, all the birds fly higher

Almonds will start to blossom

Honeybees swing for me

Let me stop by the river on the walk

take a bath in the sparkling water

Feel the cold pleasant blue on my head

Little fish playing on the shiny ground

All at once I feel a chilly breeze

it’s getting late, the night is calling fireflies

suddenly I see his face looming up

in the evening sun, perhaps we’ll make it…
