I sway, I sway, my dance begins,
A doll of China, magic within,
I sway, I sway, my dance takes hold,
A doll of China, a story untold.

When I dance, the world finds its sway,
My heart sees the light of the day,
Cars halt, and trains grind to a stop,
When I dance, the world's heart will drop.
Though small, though frail, a bond I embrace,
A doll of China, magic's grace,
I sway, I sway, my spirit sings,
A doll of China, on magical wings.

I set fire to water, I melt the stone's keep,
With my breath, the stars from darkness I sweep,
I set fire to water, I melt stone's might,
From my essence, the moon takes flight.
Yet so fragile, how can I say?
A doll of China, in magical play,
I sway, I sway, my rhythm's call,
A doll of China, enchanting all.

Town to town, my laughter will roam,
My name is Lightning, my journey, my home,
To laugh, to sing, is my only art,
Town to town, my electric heart.
Young and old, they gather near,
A doll of China, banishing fear,
I sway, I sway, my spirit's free,
A doll of China, for all to see.
