[English]

All my life, I've been walking on my own

Along the lonely road of the heart

On my side, I got symphonies and songs

To help me find my way through the dark

Oh, six in the morning with nowhere to go

Sing, "Hello world, it feels so good to be home"

Lost in the dark, but I'll never be alone

Sing, "Hello world, it feels so good to be home"

(Sing, "Hello world, it feels so good to be home")

Hello, hello, hello world

I open my eyes and said hello to the world (hello to the world)

Hello, hello, hello world

I open my eyes and said hello to the world

All night long, I've been talking to myself

The voices in my head don't cry

On my mind, I become somebody else

So this is how it feels to say goodbye

Oh, six in the morning with nowhere to go

Sing, "Hello world, it feels so good to be home"

Lost in the dark, but I'll never be alone

Sing, "Hello world, it feels so good to be home"

Hello, hello, hello world

I open my eyes and said hello to the world (hello to the world)

Hello, hello, hello world

(I open my eyes and said hello to the world)
