What A Big Wide World
Essie Jain Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Oi tell could really swish
Set the fish to the big blue sea
Oi take good care of me
Set the moon to the shooting star
How wonderful you are
Set the star to the silvery moon
I'll make your dreams come true
Oh its a big wide world
Oh its a big wide world
Oh its a big wide world
Ooooh its a big wide world
Set the bear to the talkring tree
Oh I love your taste in leaves
Set the tree to the cuddly bear
You can always share with me
Oh its a big wide world
Oh its a big wide world
Oh its a big wide world
Ooooh its a big wide world
In Essie Jain's song "What a Big Wide World," the lyrics describe a conversation between various elements of nature. The song suggests that all of these different elements, from fish to the moon, are interconnected and rely on each other to survive. The first stanza describes the sea instructing a fish to swim, while the fish asks for protection. Then, the moon and a shooting star exchange admiration for each other, highlighting the beauty of the night sky. Finally, the star promises to make the moon's dreams come true.
The second stanza continues this theme of interconnectivity, as a bear and a talking tree discuss their shared appreciation for leaves. The tree decides to offer the bear some of its leaves to eat, emphasizing the idea of sharing and community among living things. The chorus, "Oh it's a big wide world," serves as a reminder that all of these elements coexist in a vast universe, where every creature plays an important role.
Overall, the song's message is one of unity and interconnectedness. It suggests that all life is valuable, no matter how small or seemingly insignificant, and that we are all responsible for taking care of each other and the environment around us.
