It's morning, just after a rain,
The sun sparkles;
The rainbow is probably
A good omen:
Let's get on our bicycles,
And rush out of town:
Just a little adventure
Changes the look of the sky. 

We experience a fresh breeze 
All over our bodies,
As we climb up a steep hill road. 

Before our eyes
Extends a grassy plain;
When we lay down our bicycles
And take a deep breath,
It is marvelous, isn't it ?
The clouds, like airplanes, take me
Along into the serene blue radiance. 
  

The sound of the Rails
Has a gentle Rhythm;
Just a little adventure
Changes the look of the scenery. 

We cross the railway at an iron bridge,
In Indian summer weather,
When a train comes out of a green Tunnel. 

Before our eyes, 
Wherever we look, is the sea.
When we open the window all the way,
And take a deep breath,
It is marvelous, isn't it ?
The evening sun is melting into the sea, and
Wherever we go, we'll go with clear hearts. 
  

Before our eyes
Extends a grassy plain;
When we lay down our bicycles
And take a deep breath,
It is marvelous, isn't it ?
The clouds, like airplanes, take me
Along into the serene blue radiance.
