Lyrics[]

When you wish upon a star,
Wonder and dream, make a wish, be anything.
And when you wish upon a star,
Wonder and dream, make a wish, be anything you want to be.

When you wish, when you wish,
When you wish, when you wish upon a star.

A ship that sails from place to place,
An astronaut in outer space,
A seed, a tree, a flower that grows and grows.

I wonder what I'll be today.
Come with us and dream away.

When you wish upon a star,
Wonder and dream, make a wish, be anything.
And when you wish upon a star,
Wonder and dream, make a wish, be anything you want to be.

When you wish, when you wish,
When you wish, when you wish upon a star.

A unicorn with wings of gold,
A dinosaur from times of old,
A wizard with a magic wand who looks like me.

I wonder what I'll be today.
Come with us and dream away.

When you wish upon a star,
Wonder and dream, make a wish, be anything.
And when you wish upon a star,
Wonder and dream, make a wish, be anything you want to be.

When you wish, when you wish,
When you wish, when you wish upon a star.

The world is full of wonders,
There's nothing you can't do.
Anything is possible
When you believe in you.

When you wish upon a star,
Wonder and dream, make a wish, be anything.
And when you wish upon a star,
Wonder and dream, make a wish, be anything you want to be.

When you wish, when you wish,
When you wish, when you wish,
When you wish, when you wish,
When you wish, when you wish upon a star.

When you wish, when you wish,
When you wish, when you wish upon a star.

Spanish Lyrics[]

Una estrella brillará
Hoy tus deseos podrán cumplirse
Y con las manos hazlo ya
Hoy tus deseos van a cumplirse y serás feliz.

Un deseo soñarás, soñarás
Se hará pronto realidad.

En un barco navegar
Ser astronauta y explorar
Y ver las flores como crecerán.

¿Qué es lo que vas a desear?
Ven conmigo a soñar.

Una estrella brillará
Hoy tus deseos podrán cumplirse
Y con las manos hazlo ya
Hoy tus deseos van a cumplirse y serás feliz.

Un deseo soñarás, soñarás
Se hará pronto realidad.

Como unicornio podrás volar
Y como dinosaurio andarás
Y un mago y su varita haciendo siempre así

¿Qué es lo que vas a desear?
Ven conmigo a soñar.

Una estrella brillará
Hoy tus deseos podrán cumplirse
Y con las manos hazlo ya
Hoy tus deseos van a cumplirse y serás feliz.

Un deseo soñarás, soñarás
Se hará pronto realidad.

Hay cosas tan hermosas
Si las deseas tú
Y todo es posible
Si así lo quieres tú.

Una estrella brillará
Hoy tus deseos podrán cumplirse
Y con las manos hazlo ya
Hoy tus deseos van a cumplirse y serás feliz.

Un deseo soñarás, soñarás
Soñarás, soñarás
Soñarás, soñarás
Se hará pronto realidad.

Un deseo soñarás, soñarás
Se hará pronto realidad.

Portuguese Lyrics[]

Sua estrela vai brilhar
Faça um pedido, um desejo o que quiser
A sua estrela vai brilhar
Faça um pedido, um desejo o que quiser.
É só pedir...
Seus desejos, desejos
Desejos vão se realizar!

Que aventuras, eu vou ter
Um astronauta, eu posso ser
Liberto a minha imaginação.
Eu mal consigo esperar
Vamos juntos pra sonhar!

Sua estrela vai brilhar
Faça um pedido, um desejo o que quiser
A sua estrela vai brilhar
Faça um pedido, um desejo o que quiser.
É só pedir...
Seus desejos, desejos
Desejos vão se realizar!

Que maravilhas, eu vou ver
Um dinossauro a correr
Magias e encantos feitos só pra mim!
Eu mal consigo esperar
Vamos juntos pra sonhar!

Sua estrela vai brilhar
Faça um pedido, um desejo o que quiser
A sua estrela vai brilhar
Faça um pedido, um desejo o que quiser.
É só pedir...
Seus desejos, desejos
Desejos vão se realizar!

Que mundo emocionante
Iremos conhecer
Tudo é possível
Acredite em você!

Sua estrela vai brilhar
Faça um pedido, um desejo o que quiser
A sua estrela vai brilhar
Faça um pedido, um desejo o que quiser.
É só pedir.

Seus desejos, desejos, desejos
Desejos, desejos, desejos
Desejos vão se realizar!

Seus desejos, desejos
Desejos vão se realizar!

Trivia[]

  • In the Sharing Wishes video and the Wish Upon A Star album, the beginning part of the song's music was excluded.
  • The song's line "When you wish upon a star" was referenced from the song of the same name in Disney's movie, Pinocchio.
  • This is the last song to feature Kathleen de Leon Jones as a member of the group. Therefore, this is the last song ever to be sang by all of the members of the original lineup.
  • In the ending version of Series 8, Tim, Nathan, Kellie, and Kathleen's credits were used with special effects.
    • Tim, Kellie and Nathan were fully used with green screen.
      • Special effects used to show Tim flying in outer space.
      • Nathan in a prehistoric landscape. This prehistoric landscape would be later seen again in “Time Machine”.
      • Kellie's credit scene was also green screened, but only on a mirror where Chatterbox can be seen.
    • Kathleen's credit scene was done using pausing and editing.
    • Charli is the only one whose credit scene in the ending version did not use any type of editing.
    • Also, the cast credits appear in these scenes, making this song the earliest time that the cast credits appear in the ending version of a Song of the Week as Tim and Kathleen's scenes appear in the first verse, Charli, Nathan and Kellie's scenes appear in the second verse, and none of the cast credits appeared near the end of this song, like they usually do, except some songs in Hi-5 House.
      • Although, the first one in the franchise was the American version of Three Wishes.
  • The new Australian cast sing a cappella to celebrate New Year's Day on social media accounts.
  • This is one of the songs to appear in the same Song Of The Week set for the second time, along with “Wow!”, “Some Kind Of Wonderful” and “Making Music”.
  • The costumes worn by original cast were later reused in the following episodes:
  • In Series 8, the weekly theme for this song was "Wondering", while in Series 13, it was "Dreaming". This is based on the lyrics of the song "Wonder and dream, make a wish, be anything".
