There was a boy
A very strange enchanted boy
They say he wandered very far, very far
Over land and sea
A little shy and sad of eye
But very wise was he
And then one day
A magic day he passed my way
And while we spoke of many things
Fools and kings
This he said to me
The greatest thing you'll ever learn
Is just to love and be loved in return

Дитя природы
Когда-то на свете жил мальчик
Очень странный, загадочный мальчик.
Говорят, он странствовал далёко, очень далёко
За моря, за дальние страны.
Он был немного застенчив и с грустными глазами,
Но очень мудрым был он.
И однажды, в тот день,
В тот волшебный день, когда наши пути пересеклись,
И когда мы говорили о всякой всячине -
О шутах и королях,
Он вдруг сказал мне:
«Самое главное из того, что ты когда-либо познаешь -
Это каково любить и быть любимым в ответ!»

Child of Nature.
Once a boy lived in the world
Very strange, mysterious boy.
They say he wandered far away, very far
Behind the sea, for distant countries.
He was a little shy and sad eyes,
But he was very wiser.
And one day, that day,
In that magical day, when our paths crossed,
And when we talked about anyhow -
About the jesters and kings
He suddenly told me:
"The most important thing is that you ever know -
This is how to love and be loved in response! "
