Lullaby and Love’s Token
Lullaby and Love’s Token
Over The Rainbow
Somewhere over the rainbow
Way up high
There's a land that I heard of
Once in a lullaby
Like a picture of a family reunion, you have this song of fantasy that you are a little girl and uncles, aunts, and family elders are gathering together once more like before.
Once again, you have a dream just like when you were still a girl.
For those who saw me in my cradle
I search somewhere over the rainbow
Clinging to aunt’s skirt
Looking up to uncles’ height of intelligence
Never saw the drooping sight of roses
When I was with grandparents
I got an 28 carat ruby ring from uncle’s foreign wife
She would want me to have it
The gift to her from grandmother
Why did it take 26 years after grandmother’s death?
Family heritage must be passed on.
As love’s token

Over The Rainbow
(Arlen-Harburg)
Somewhere over the rainbow
Way up high
There's a land that I heard ofOnce in a lullaby
Somewhere over the rainbow
Skies are blue
And the dreams that you dare to dream
Really do come true
Some day I'll wish upon a star
And wake up where the clouds are far behind me
Where troubles melt like lemondrops
Away above the chimney tops
That's where you'll find me
Somewhere over the rainbow
Bluebirds fly
Birds fly over the rainbow
Why then, oh why can't I?
Some day I'll wish upon a star
And wake up where the clouds are far behind me
Where troubles melt like lemondrops
Away above the chimney tops
That's where you'll find me
Somewhere over the rainbow
Bluebirds fly
Birds fly over the rainbow
Why then, oh why can't I?
If happy little bluebirds fly
Beyond the rainbow
Why, oh why can't I?
