Through years of endless springs,
The murmur of a brook at evening tides.
That ripples through a nook where two lovers hide.
That great symphonic theme,
That's Stella by starlight,
And not a dream,
She's everything on this earth to me.
That great symphonic theme,

And not a dream,
My heart and i agree,
She's everything on this earth to me.

The song a robin sings,
The melody that a robin chirps,
Through years of endless springs,
Over many seasons that seem to have no end,
The murmur of a brook at evening tides.
The gentle sound of a stream during dusk hours,
That ripples through a nook where two lovers hide.
And flows through a small secluded corner where two people in love seek privacy.
That great symphonic theme,
That magnificent orchestral composition,
That's Stella by starlight,
Which is the beautiful tune known as Stella by starlight,
And not a dream,
It is a reality,
My heart and I agree,
My emotions and I concur,
She's everything on this earth to me.
That she means the world to me and is my everything.
