IF: Blanket



Trying to translate this with my limited ability.

A little girl asked her grandma,
Why the little stars blink at night,
Her grandma gently patted her head,
"That's because my little girl is too gorgeous,
For the night is dark,
They need to wink in order to see you clear."

Night falls,
She went to bed with the lights on,
Her mummy wondered why,
"Then only can the stars see me clear!"

Special guests were there in her little sweet dream,
Their gathering around illuminated the dark sky.
