Dear children,
Here are the lyrics to the song, 'Somewhere Over the Rainbow'. The song was originally composed for the movie, 'The Wizard of Oz' in 1939.
Do practice singing the song. Having heard some of you sing today, I must say that some of you can sing very melodiously.
Somewhere Over the Rainbow
Somewhere over the rainbow
Way up high,
There's a 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
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?
- Music by Harold Arlen and Lyrics by E.Y. Harburg
With much love,
Ms. Emilia
