Lea Salonga - Ishi Kara Ishi Lyrics

[OJII-CHAN, spoken]
Keiko, always think of other. When you mommy die, you grow up so fast. Take care Sammy, help with farm... Why you no go to dance? Have fun? Do American boogie woogie?

[KEI, spoken]
That’s for kids. No one wants to dance with an old maid

[OJII-CHAN, spoken]
You crazy! How you can be old maid when I still so young? Japanese say “Beppin-san...”

[KEI, spoken]
"A pretty lady..."

[OJII-CHAN, spoken]
"...Should not sit home with old man on Saturday night."

[KEI, spoken]
That’s not a proverb

[OJII-CHAN, spoken]
No, but should be! Listen to Ojii-chan:
(sung)
Keiko look at page
Paper very bad
Now I look at Keiko
See how Keiko very sad
But paper also change
I fold it up this way
[KEI]
A paper flower blossom

[OJII-CHAN]
Just like Kei!

[KEI, spoken]
Nothing blooms at Heart Mountain

[OJII-CHAN, spoken]
You want bet? Two dollar say I make garden grow in hard ground

[KEI, spoken]
You’re on!

[OJII-CHAN, spoken]
Ha! You gonna lose. You know why?

[KEI, spoken]
Let me guess: Japanese say “Ishi kara ishi”

[OJII-CHAN, spoken]
Mountain can be moved

[OJII-CHAN & KEI, spoken]
Stone by stone
(sung)
Ishi kara ishi
Yama wai do dekiru
Yashii ogawa wa ganima oreru
Oreru
