The most beautiful sound I ever heard 
All the beautiful sounds of the world in a single word 
Maria 
I just met a girl named Maria 
And suddenly that name 
Will never be the same to me 
Maria 
I just kissed a girl named Maria 
And suddenly I found 
How wonderful a sound can be 
Maria 
Say it loud and there's music playing 
Say it soft and it's almost like praying 
Maria 
I'll never stop saying 
Maria 
Maria, Maria... 
Maria 
Say it loud and there's music playing 
Say it soft and it's almost like praying 
Maria 
I'll never stop saying 
Maria 
The most beautiful sound I ever heard 
Maria
