Lyrics and translation 石川さゆり - まっくろけ節(都々逸入り)

まっくろけ節(都々逸入り)

箱根山 昔ゃ背で越す駕籠で越す
今じゃねていて 汽車で越す
トンネルくぐれば まっくろけのけ
オヤオヤ まっくろけのけ
桜島 薩摩の国の桜島
煙を吐いて火を噴いて
十里四万が まっくろけのけ
オヤオヤ まっくろけのけ まっくろけのけ
オヤオヤ まっくろけのけ
昼寝する 貴方の顔に 筆ペンで
好き好き好きと そっと書く
まっくろけのけ オヤオヤ まっくろけのけ

Black Mountain Tune (with Ditty)

Hakone Mountain was once crossed on a palanquin, carried on the backs of men
But now, we ride comfortably through it by train
As we pass through the tunnel, it becomes pitch black
Oh dear! It's pitch black
Sakurajima, Sakurajima in Satsuma
It belches out smoke and spews fire
Ten miles in every direction are covered in soot
Oh dear! It's pitch black, pitch black
Oh dear! It's pitch black
As you nap, I take a pen and gently write
"I love you, I love you, I love you"
Pitch black, Oh dear! Pitch black
