Theme

Flying Heart


Having been pure and innocent, young and arrogant,
We are looking forward the snow white hometown, pursuing the fairy dream.

Having forgotten pains and sorrows, keeping forward,
Our hearts fly to the distance along with stronger wings.

The flying hearts are gradually growing,
The flying hearts are wholly in volition.
The future is ours not further than young dreams.
The future is ours who can fly with his dreams.

I want to fly to the distance, to the blue and wonderful place.
