If this song doesn’t make you happier and feel like taking a walk, you have no soul. Just throwing that out.
On a light-hearted note, Yoko believed that she would visit totoro until well into middle school. In fact, I think somewhere in her mind she still hasn’t given up hope that totoro might call her one day.
Let’s walk, let’s walk, I’m as happy as can be!
I love to walk, let’s go quickly!
An uphill road, a tunnel, a meadow,
At a log bridge, a bumpy gravel path.
Passing under a spiderweb, a downhill path.
Let’s walk, let’s walk, I’m as happy as can be!
I love to walk, let’s go quickly!
A honeybee buzzes in a field of flowers,
a lizard in the sunshine, a snake takes a midday nap,
a grasshopper leaps, along the curving path.
Let’s walk, let’s walk, I’m as happy as can be!
I love to walk, let’s go quickly!
Foxes and badgers too, come out!
Let’s go exploring deep into the woods.
I have lots of friends, I’m so happy.
I have lots of friends, I’m so happy.
