Seikurabe

柱のきずは おととしの
五月五日の背くらべ
粽たべたべ 兄さんが

計ってくれた 背のたけ
きのうくらべりゃ 何のこと
やっと羽織の紐のたけ
柱に凭れりゃ すぐ見える
遠いお山も背くらべ
雲の上まで顔だして
てんでに背伸びしていても
雪の帽子を ぬいでさえ
一はやっぱり 富士の山
柱のきずは おととしの
五月五日の背くらべ
粽たべたべ 兄さんが

計ってくれた 背のたけ
きのうくらべりゃ 何のこと
やっと羽織の紐のたけ
柱に凭れりゃ すぐ見える
遠いお山も背くらべ
雲の上まで顔だして
てんでに背伸びしていても
雪の帽子を ぬいでさえ
一はやっぱり 富士の山

Comparison of Heights

The marks on the pillar are from the year before last
On Children's Day, May 5th
My elder brother ate his rice dumpling

And measured my height
Compared to yesterday, it's nothing
It finally reaches the hem of my coat
I can see it right away when I lean against the pillar
Even the distant mountains are comparing their heights
Their faces appearing above the clouds
Stretching up however they want
Even if they remove their snowy caps
Mount Fuji is still the tallest of all
The marks on the pillar are from the year before last
On Children's Day, May 5th
My elder brother ate his rice dumpling

And measured my height
Compared to yesterday, it's nothing
It finally reaches the hem of my coat
I can see it right away when I lean against the pillar
Even the distant mountains are comparing their heights
Their faces appearing above the clouds
Stretching up however they want
Even if they remove their snowy caps
Mount Fuji is still the tallest of all
