Believe in magic, my little girl.
I promise you, I will be there
To watch your dance and lovely gait
And clap my hands in euphoric state.
But here I am in a crowded street
With yellow daisies for your feat.
God, I whisper, soar me high
On wings of my umbrella I will fly
Just right in time for the curtain call
And kiss you goodbye for your ball.
