哀恋歌(あいれんか) - Hibari Misora translation in English

哀恋歌(あいれんか)

酒がなみだを さそうのか
なみだが深酒 ねだるのか
ばかよばかよね あたしのみれん
追ってどうなる 男ではないと
知っていながらああ
...霧笛の酒場

夢を点しに 来た土他郷に
小突かれ つまずき 迷酔鳥(まよいどり)
つらい時には 戻ってこいの
母の笑顔が 妹の声が
いっそ死にたい ああ
...弱音を叱る

惚れたぶんだけ 怨んでも
あの男恋しと 乳房が泣く
乱れほつれ毛 手櫛でとけば
過ぎた昭和の 人恋演歌が
さむい肩抱く ああ
...霧笛の酒場

Grieving Song (Airenka)

Does sake call forth your tears,
Or do your tears beg for hard drink?
You fool, you utter fool, my unrequited love,
What good will come of chasing after him,
When you know he's not the one for you?
...The tavern where the fog horn blows

I came to this distant land to pursue my dreams,
Only to be knocked down, to stumble, and to become a lost bird.
When times are tough, I'll come home,
To my mother's smile, to my sister's voice.
I might as well die, oh...
...to be scolded for being weak.

Despite all my resentment, born from the depth of my love,
I still long for that man, and my breasts weep.
My hair is a tangled mess, but when I run my fingers through it,
The old Showa love song comes to mind,
And I embrace my cold shoulders, oh...
...The tavern where the fog horn blows
