頑張ろうという気持ちが大切。才能がなくたって好きなら、上手になりたいという強い意思があればいいでしょ。

マチルダのWhen I grow up。この歌は子供たちが大合唱したら、かなり感激しそうです。

When I grow up
I will be tall enough to
reach the branches
that I need to reach to climb the trees
you get to climb
when you’re grown up

And when I grow up,
I will be smart enough to answer
all the questions that you need to know
the answers to before you’re grown up

And when I grow up I will eat sweets
everyday on the way to work and
I will go to bed late every night

And I will wake up
when the sun comes up
and I will watch cartoons
until my eyes go square
and I won’t care cause
I’ll be all grown up

When I grow up

When I grow up
When I grow up
(When I grow up)

I will be strong enough to
carry all the heavy things
you have to hold around
with you when you’re a grown up

And when I grow up
When I grow up
(When I grow up)
I will be brave enough to fight
the creatures that you have to fight beneath
the bed each night to be a grown up

When I grow up
(When I grow up)
I will have treats everydat and I’ll play with
things that Mom pretends
that Moms don’t think are fun

And I will wake up
(I will wake up)
when the sun comes up and I will spend
all day just lying in the sun
and I won’t burn cause
I’ll be all grown up

When I grow up
When I grow up
I will be brave enough to fight
the creatures that you have to fight beneath
the bed each night to be a grown up

When I grow upppppp Just
because you find that life’s
not fair it doesn’t mean
that you just have to grin
and bear it,
if you always take it on the
chin and wear it, nothing
will change

Just because I find myself
in this story, it doesn’t
mean that everything is written for me,
if I think the ending is fixed or
ready I might as well be
saying I think that it’s ok,
and that’s not right!

そして、A whole new world。

これもいい感じ。どうなることやら、不安もたくさんだけど、子供たちのパワーを信頼しています。

I can show you the world
Shining, shimmering, splendid
Tell me, princess, now when did
You last let your heart decide?

I can open your eyes
Take you wonder by wonder
Over, sideways and under
On a magic carpet ride

A whole new world
A new fantastic point of view
No one to tell us no
Or where to go
Or say we’re only dreaming

A whole new world
A dazzling place I never knew
But when I’m way up here
It’s crystal clear
That now I’m in a whole new world with you

Unbelievable sights
Indescribable feeling
Soaring, tumbling, freewheeling
Through an endless diamond sky

A whole new world
Don’t you dare close your eyes
A hundred thousand things to see
Hold your breath – it gets better
I’m like a shooting star
I’ve come so far
I can’t go back to where I used to be

A whole new world
With new horizons to pursue
I’ll chase them anywhere
There’s time to spare
Let me share this whole new world with you

A whole new world / A whole new world
A new fantastic point of view
No one to tell us no
Or where to go
Or say we’re only dreaming

A whole new world
Every turn a surprise
With new horizons to pursue
Every moment red-letter
I’ll chase them anywhere
There’s time to spare
Anywhere
There’s time to spare
Let me share this whole new world with you

A whole new world / A whole new world
That’s where we’ll be / where we’ll be
A thrilling chase
A wondrous place
For you and me
