Paroles et traduction en anglais Kiyoshi Hikawa - 山の吊橋

山の吊橋

山の吊橋ァ どなたが通る
せがれなくした 鉄砲うちが
話相手の 犬つれて
熊のおやじを みやげにすると
鉄砲ひとなで して通る ホレ ユーラユラ

山の吊橋ァ どなたが通る
遠い都へ 離れた人を
そっとしのびに 村娘
谷の瀬音が 心にしむか
涙ひとふき して通る ホレ ユーラユラ

山の吊橋ァ どなたが通る
酒がきれたか 背中をまるめ
のんベェ炭焼き 急ぎ足
月をたよりに 枯れ葉のように
くしゃみ続けて して通る ホレ ユーラユラ

Mountain Suspension Bridge

Across the mountain suspension bridge, darling, who goes there?
A hunter, lost his son, they say,
With his dog, his only friend,
Carrying a bear, a prize he's won,
Stroking his gun, he walks on by, Swaying, swaying, oh so high.

Across the mountain suspension bridge, darling, who goes there?
A village girl, with longing deep,
For someone far away, she keeps
A secret vigil, while the stream flows near,
Wiping a tear, she walks on by, Swaying, swaying, oh so high.

Across the mountain suspension bridge, darling, who goes there?
An old charcoal burner, bent and gray,
Out of sake, I'd dare to say,
Hurrying on, his steps are fast,
Sneezing and coughing, he walks on by, Swaying, swaying, oh so high.
