Paroles et traduction Aki Yashiro - 別れの一本杉

別れの一本杉

泣けた 泣けた
こらえきれずに 泣けたっけ
あの娘と別れた 哀しさに
山のかけすも鳴いていた
一本杉の 石の地蔵さんのよ
村はずれ
遠い 遠い
想い出しても 遠い空
必ず東京へつ いたなら
便りおくれと云った娘
りんごの様な 赤い頬っぺたのよ
あの泪
呼んで 呼んで
そっと月夜にゃ 呼んでみた
嫁にもゆかずに この俺の
帰りひたすら待っている
あの娘はいくつ とうに二十はよ
過ぎたろに

Farewell a Lone Pine Tree

I cried, I cried
I couldn't hold back my tears
As I bid farewell to my girl
In the mountains, the jaybird called
By the lone pine tree, where the stone Jizo stands
On the outskirts of the village
Far, far away
Even in my memories, it's a distant sky
When I finally reach Tokyo
I'll send you a letter, she had said
Her cheeks were as red as an apple
Those tears
I called and called
In the moonlight, I called for her
Without marrying, I'll wait
For your return
She must be over twenty by now
It's been too long
