| Is this the little girl I carried?
|
| Is this the little boy at play?
|
| I don’t remember growing older
|
| When, did, they?
|
| When did she get to be a beauty?
|
| When did he grow to be so tall?
|
| Wasn’t it yesterday when they, were, small?
|
| Sunrise, sunset, Sunrise, sunset
|
| Swiftly flow the days
|
| Seedlings turn overnight to sunflowers
|
| Blossoming even as we gaze
|
| Sunrise, sunset, Sunrise, sunset
|
| Swiftly fly the years
|
| One season following another
|
| Laden with happiness and tears
|
| Now is the little boy a bride groom?
|
| Now is the little girl a bride?
|
| Under the canopy I see them
|
| Side, by, side
|
| Bless the gold ring around her finger
|
| Share the sweet wine and bread per glass
|
| Soon the whole circle will have come, to, pass
|
| Sunrise, sunset, Sunrise, sunset
|
| Swiftly flow the days
|
| Seedlings turn overnight to sunflowers
|
| Blossoming even as we gaze
|
| Sunrise, sunset, Sunrise, sunset
|
| Swiftly fly the years
|
| One season following another
|
| Laden with happiness, and, tears
|
| (Sunrise, sunset) |
