Twinkle Twinkle little star

How I wonder what you are

I count and count the stars again

Asking myself if I can shine just like them 


I'm starting to feel guilty all over my soul

Looking at my parents who have to endure it all

I envy my friends who are at school

If only I have the money and tools


Mom and Dad please wait for a little while

I may be delayed but I'll make it at the right time 

I'm the captain of my own ship

I'll keep sailing until I reach the grand line


My dream is as wide as the sphere

Like the blue sea, it's crystal clear

Let's stop counting your age, 'till I find the key 

I promise, I'll free you from that cage of poverty 


Life is hard but let's keep smiling anyway 

I'll sail at the sea of clouds in my own way

You'll see me reach that stars someday 

So Mom and Dad, please wait and stay
