Lyrics and translation PE'Z - 炭坑節(福岡県)

炭坑節(福岡県)

月が出た出た 月が出た
(ヨイヨイ)
三池炭坑の 上に出た
あんまり煙突が 高いので
さぞやお月さん けむたかろ
(サノ ヨイヨイ)
月がさし込む あばら家も
(ヨイヨイ)
なんの辛かろ 共苦労
好いて好かれて 暮らすなら
夢に黄金(こがね)の 花が咲く
(サノ ヨイヨイ)
あなた オームか九官鳥
(ヨイヨイ)
見ればきれいで 口上手
うれしがらせを 言うけれど
にてもやいても 喰わりゃせぬ
(サノ ヨイヨイ)
ダイヤモンドが 欲しいなら
(ヨイヨイ)
一度来てみな この山へ
男ざかりの さまちゃんが
意気で掘りだす 黒ダイヤ
(サノ ヨイヨイ)

Coal Mine Festival (Fukuoka Prefecture)

Moon is out, moon is out, moon is out
(Yo, yo, yo)
Over the Miike coal mine
The chimneys are so tall
I bet the moon is choking
(Sa-no yo, yo, yo)
Shacks where the moon shines in
(Yo, yo, yo)
How bitter must life be?
If we love and are loved and live together
Golden flowers will bloom in our dreams
(Sa-no yo, yo, yo)
Are you a parrot or a mynah bird?
(Yo, yo, yo)
You're pretty to look at and a smooth talker
You make me happy with your words
But no matter how I cook you
(Sa-no yo, yo, yo)
If you want diamonds
(Yo, yo, yo)
Come to this mountain
Young men like me
Are digging out
(Sa-no yo, yo, yo)
