母いすゞ - Remastered 2013

モネの絵みたいな港町 いつもの母の朝
長男の部屋は物置きに 次女とは会話が無い

光る煮物の芋 誰かから電話
大事なさんまが焦げるわ あら箸が無い

母いすゞは 母いすゞは

果物にたかるハエ追っ払って 誰ともなく呟く
「一度でも愛した人のこと けなすもんじゃないよ」

一雨来るかも 雷鳴るかも
かれこれもう十何年と音沙汰がない

父ジャンとは 父ジャンとは

エンヤー船が出た エンヤー水揚げだ
変な空模様だ 変な鳥の群れだ
変な海の色だ 変な風向きだ
今夜は荒れそうだ 長男元気かな

「パトリオットミサイル」を「アプリコットミサイル」と言い間違えた
「ナスカの地上絵」を「ナチスの地上絵」と言い間違えた
「おひつのご飯」を「棺のご飯」と言い間違えた

母いすゞは 母いすゞは 母いすゞは

強かった

Mother Isuzu - Remastered 2013

A harbor town like a Monet painting. Mother's usual morning.
The eldest son's room is a storage room. I don't talk to my second daughter.

Shining simmered potatoes. Someone is on the phone.
The important mackerel is burning. Oh, no chopsticks.

Mother Isuzu is. Mother Isuzu is.

Chasing away the flies that gather on the fruit. Someone mutters,
“Don't badmouth someone you have loved, even once.”

There might be a rain. There might be a thunderstorm.
It has been more than ten years since we last heard from him.

Father Jean is. Father Jean is.

Oh, the boat has left. Oh, the catch.
What a strange sky. What a strange flock of birds.
What a strange color of the sea. What a strange direction of the wind.
It's going to be rough tonight. I wonder if my eldest son is doing well.

She mispronounced "Patriot missile" as "Apricot missile".
She mispronounced "Nazca Lines" as "Nazi Lines".
She mispronounced "steamed rice in a bowl" as "rice in a coffin".

Mother Isuzu is. Mother Isuzu is.

Strong.
