May God bless and keep you always May your wishes all come true May you always do for others And let others do for you May you build a ladder to the stars And climb on every rung
[Chorus] May you stay forever young Forever young, forever young May you stay forever young
この冒頭の詩 May God bless and keep you always などは、まさにヘブライ語聖書の「祭司の祝祷」(民数記6・24)そのもではないか! 「願わくは 主があなたを祝福し あなたを守られるように」
それから May you build a ladder to the stars And climb on every rung
