おとこの詩(うた)

さくら木は 雪背負い
風に叩かれ 雨を吸い
花を咲かす
人の世の 男も同じ
傷負いながら 涙をすすり
あゝ いのち磨く

母の愛 父の夢
人は授かり 生まれきて
きょうを生きる
一隅を 照らして生きる
男になれと 言われたことば
あゝ 忘れまいぞ

仰ぎ見る その姿
富士の尊き 雄々しさに
なみだ溢る
幾年の 山河を越えて
まだなお遠き 見果てぬ夢の
あゝ 志よ

A Man's Poem (Song)

The cherry tree, burdened by snow,
Battered by wind, drinking the rain,
Blooms.
A man in this world, he's the same,
Wounded, swallowing back tears,
Ah, he polishes his life.

A mother's love, a father's dream,
People are gifted, born into this world,
To live today.
To live, illuminating a corner of it,
The words "Become a man," spoken to me,
Ah, I will not forget.

Looking up at that figure,
At Mount Fuji's noble, majestic form,
Tears overflow.
Over the mountains and rivers of countless years,
Still so far, a dream yet unseen,
Ah, my ambition.
