This all started at the 5th December of 2013.
We are blessed with a tiny little bundle of joy, Ninetta Charlotte Manafe.
Got some inspirations during some of my sleepless night, so i tried to arrange a song that was originally composed for children.
During the intro I imagine that I was at an amusement park with my daughter, and she was there for the first time ever. Her eyes widened like she could not believe what she saw of course with an ear to ear smile.
The first stanza is about us riding on a carousel, she was with her mother at one of the chariot, and i was sitting on a horse just beside them.
The second stanza is when we walk around and stopped at the cotton candy maker.
The third stanza is on a minor chord, because it is time to go home and she cried a little.
The conclusion is when i carried her in my arms, looked into her watery eyes and promised her that someday we will surely come back to the park.
In between stanzas are pictures of her little steps threading with happiness.
We played this arrangement twice, the first one was at our church (Bendungan Hilir Adventist Church) and the second one was a month ago at Menteng Adventist Church.
I revised the original arrangements to adjust with the musicians, and also after i got several inputs.
I hope you enjoyed reading as you enjoyed the song.
Music score available, just let me know if you want it.
