[English]

Greatness as you

Smallest as me

You show me what is deep as sea

A little love,

little kiss

A little hug,

little gift

All of little something, these are our memories

You make me cry

Make me smile

Make me feel that love is true

You always stand by my side

I don't want to say goodbye

You make me cry

Make me smile

Make me feel the joy of love

Oh kissing you

Thank you for all the love you always give to me

Oh I love you

Greatness as you

Smallest as me

You show me what is deep as sea

A little love,

little kiss

A little hug,

little gift

All of little something, these are our memories

You make me cry

Make me smile

Make me feel that love is true

You always stand by my side

I don't want to say goodbye

You make me cry

Make me smile

Make me feel the joy of love

Oh kissing you

Thank you for all the love you always give to me

Oh I love you

Yes I do

I always do

Make me cry

Make me smile

Make me feel that love is true

You always stand by my side

I don't want to say goodbye

You make me cry

Make me smile

Make me feel the joy of love

Oh kissing you

Thank you for all the love you always give to me

Oh I love you

To be with you

Oh I love you
