opening a storybook...

deschizând o carte de povești...

ce zână de furișează 

printre lăcrămioare?

opening a storybook...

what fairy is sneaking among

lilies of the valley?

ouvrir un livre de contes...

quelle fée se faufile parmi

les muguets ?

monogatari no hon o hiraku...

suzuran no ma ni hisonde iru 

yōsei wa nanideshou?

物語の本を開く...

スズランの間に潜んでいる

妖精は何でしょう？
