Illya darling, darling illya - la, la, la, la, la

Who is this girl who sits so sad
A tear a-shining in her eyes
Can this be laughing illya
Laughing illya who wants to cry

Illya darling, darling illya
Like a song we sing your name
You are music, you are laughter
You make life a lovely day

Like a song we sing your name
You are music, you are laughter
You make life a lovely day

Laugh with us and sing with us
And dance with us, we need you so
Illya darling, darling illya
Be the joy we used to know

Laugh with us and sing with us
And dance with us, we need you so
Illya darling, darling illya
You are all the joy we know

Illya!
