I\'ll celebrate the new year with colors
With colors of hopes and dreams
Life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness
And with the colors of prosperity and peace
In the world

Cherish my heart
So I can fly on the wings
Of a dream

My youth
Was like the delicacy and strength of a ribbon
That was connecting my body
Mind and soul
Into an enchanted melody
Of dreams

I grew up in a village
With fresh air around me
Green grass under my feet
The apple trees behind a silver street
And they were all connecting my soul
With a happy bumblebee
That was dancing carefree
On the top of a young branch
In peace

A woman
She is not just a face
She is a mind with a flare of wisdom accompanies her thoughts
A woman is not just a face
She is a reflection of light
That strives
For the search of the true meaning of happiness
With a great wish of equality
