Lucky little sparrow
Lucky little sparrow
Gliding though the air
It’s a miracle, the way you travel everywhere!
Lucky little sparrow
Soaring through the sky
Wish that I had wings like you and I could fly
I’d fly so high that I would see
The Statue of Liberty smiling at me
A breeze would lift me, off I’d go
To Egypt, Australia or old Mexico
Wish I had an angel
As my lifelong friend
She would have an extra pair of wings to lend
We’d explore the heavens
Mercury and Mars
The seven rings of Saturn, Neptune and the stars
We’d fly so high that I would see
Orion and Gemini smiling at me
Aquarius would nod “hello”
Polaris would help us to find our way home
Lucky little sparrow
Soaring through the sky
Wish that I had wings like you and I could fly
Lucky little sparrow
Please wait up for me!
I know tonight that I’ll be flying in my dreams
In my dreams….
For several decades, Marla sang and played guitar on the college and coffee house circuit. Twenty years ago, Marla began teaching Music and English as a Second Language to elementary school children in the Bronx. She also began writing songs for children and performing her lively family concerts in libraries and Parks throughout the New York City area.
She has also conducted numerous Music and Literacy workshops for
teachers throughout the Tri-state area. Participants in her workshops
rave: "Marla has inspired me to begin to use music across the
curriculum in my classroom."
To date, Marla Has released two CD's for children on her record label,
PlumJuice. The most recent, titled, "I Love to Talk to Plants,"
released in October of 2007, embraces Brazilian, African, Big Band,
and Country influences, and more! Many of her songs are inspired by
children's picture books. This CD has won the National Parenting
Center's Seal of Approval, Parents' Choice (R) Gold, and Grand Prize
in the Great American Song Contest for the song, "Mighty Jackie, the
Strikeout Queen."
"We All Laugh in the Same Language," her first release, is an upbeat
CD that celebrates positive values, love of learning, and cultural
diversity. True to her childhood tradition, her songs embrace a great
variety of styles, from Dixieland to Chinese to Hawaiian, and more. In
addition, We All Laugh has won numerous national and international
awards, including Parents' Choice and NAPPA Gold.
Marla also loves to write children's musicals and children's books.
She feels very privileged to be able to educate children through her
songs and says that teaching inspires her music, as music inspires her
teaching.
