Explanation

You jump back and forth with your hand a lot in this song. The first 7 phrases  on the left side of the score form the 'low part' of the melody. The notes on the right side are a kind of ‘response’ in a higher position on the keyboard. Play that response with easy fingers. In the fourth and fifth line, you need to stretch your fingers quite far. Pay close attention to the fingering in the last three phrases. In the video you can hear the melody clearly after an introduction of about two minutes.
