Make a Wish: Difference between revisions

Make a Wish is a song from the 6th movie, Jirachi: Wish Maker. It is the English equivalent of A Small Thing.

Early in the movie, May tells Ash and Brock that her mother used to sing it to her as a lullaby when she was a little girl, and then she sings it to her brother, Max.

During the end titles of the movie, a full version of the song is played with lyrics in both English and Japanese. This is the first time that the American dub left the original Japanese lyrics in the song.

The Japanese lyrics are performed by Asuca Hayashi, and the English lyrics are performed by Cindy Mizelle. The English version was written by Norman Grossfeld.

Lyrics

When daytime turns to night,
When the moon shines bright,
When you're tucked in tight,
and everything's alright.

Slip softly to that place,
Where secret thoughts run free,
There come face to face
With who you want to be, so

Swim across the ocean blue,
Fly a rocket to the moon;
You can change your life,
Or you can change the world.

Take a chance, don't be afraid,
Life is yours to live;
Take a chance and then the best has yet to come

Make a wish, it's up to you.
Find the strength inside,
Then watch your dreams come true.
You don't need a shooting star,
the magic's right there in your heart;
Close your eyes,
Believe and make a wish...

chiisaki mono sore wa watashi

watashi desu magirenaku

kagami no naka kokorobososa dake ga

dare ni makenai ashita ni naru yo

soshite watashi wa osanai koro ni

sukoshizutsu modotte yuku

imi mo shirazu utau koi no uta wo

homete kureta ano hi ni

michite kuru watashi no koe ga

sarasara nagaru kaze no naka de kimi mo

yuku beki michi yubi sashite iru

sarasara nagaru kaze no naka de hitori

watashi utatte imasu

I've always hoped for happiness,
And finally fulfilled my wish;
Cause I just need to see you smile.

sora wo aogeba

(Make a wish, it's up to you.)

michite kuru watashi no koe ga

(Watch your dreams come true.)

sarasara nagaru kaze no naka de kimi mo

(The magic's right there in your heart;)

fuwari maiagare

(Believe)

Make a wish, it's up to you.
Find the strength inside,
then watch your dreams come true.
You don't need a shooting star,
the magic's right there in your heart;
Close your eyes,
Believe and make a wish...

Make a wish...
