Paroles et traduction Hayley Westenra - Nemunoki no Komoriuta

Nemunoki no Komoriuta

ねんねの ねむの木 眠りの木
そーっとゆすった その枝に
遠い昔の 夜の調べ

ねんねの ねむの木 子守歌

薄紅(うすくれない)の 花の咲く
ねむの木陰(こかげ)で ふと聞いた
小さなささやき ねむの声
ねんね ねんねと 歌ってた

故郷(ふるさと)の夜の ねむの木は
今日も歌って いるでしょうか
あの日の夜の ささやきを
ねむの木 ねんねの木 子守歌

Lullaby of the Acacia Tree

Lullaby of the acacia tree, of the acacia tree
Gently swaying in the breeze, I can hear
An ancient melody, from distant nights

Lullaby of the acacia tree

Under the pale pink blooms, I close my eyes
And listen to the whisper of the leaves
A gentle, soothing sound, a lullaby
Sleep, sleep, it seems to say

The acacia tree, back home, in my dreams
Does it still sing its lullaby?
The whispers of that night, I'll always keep
Lullaby of the acacia tree
