201311 Somewhere over the rainbow
Somewhere over the rainbow-
Way up high
in the land that I heard of
Once in a lullaby
Somewhere over the rainbow-
Skies are
blue
and the dreams that you dare to dream
really do come true
Someday I'll wish upon a star
and wake up
where the clouds
are far behind me
Where troubles melt like lemon drops
away above the
chimney tops
that's where you'll find me
Somewhere over the
rainbow
skies are blue
and the dreams...that you dare to
dream
really do come true
If happy little bluebirds fly
above
the rainbow, why
Oh, why can't I?
「虹のかなたに」(ミュージカル『オズの魔法使い』から、1939年)
※地面すれすれにかかった虹。
虹に願いを託しても、残念ながら届きそうもないほど低い。
想いだけが虹を超えて高く飛んでいきそうな、この日の虹だった。
