To dreams come true!
At night we look up to the sky,
Wondering what we’ll see.
And when we see a star is falling,
We quickly make a wish.
Our mind and energy,
Our thoughts and feelings,
All conspiring to bring us joy,
Conjured up the very thing
That we have just wished for.
So in a night clear and calm,
With stars as diamond glass,
If you see a shooting star
Make a wish; know in your heart,
That what you have wished for,
Soon will come to pass!
