Rainbow, rainbow,
How beautiful you are.
Red, yellow, green,
On the blue sky.
Your painter is great,
Who is...
Rainbow, rainbow,
Creation of God.

Rainbow, rainbow
How beautiful you are!
Red, yellow, green
On the blue sky.
Who is
Your great painter,
Rainbow, rainbow?
I'm a Creation of God the Great.
Rainbow, rainbow
How beautiful you are!
Red, yellow, green

Who is
Your great painter,
Rainbow, rainbow?
I'm a Creation of God the Great.
