Paroles et traduction 石川さゆり - 京の覚え唄

京の覚え唄

春は壬生寺(みぶでら) 念仏狂言
夏は送り火 孟蘭盆会(うらぼんえ)
殼を背負ってる まいまいつんぶり
千夜待っても 来ない人
しんどかったら うちぃかめへん
夜もすがら うちの肌を染めたのに
染めたのに
ああ...
あの人が見えへん あの人が見えへん
丸太町通(まる) 竹屋町通(たけ) 夷川通(えびす)
二条通(に) 押小路通(おし) 御池通(おいけ)
姉小路通(あね) 三条通(さん) 六角通(ろっかく)
蛸薬師通(たこ) 錦小路通(にしき)
京の夜寒に せかれるように
秋は紅葉の 真如堂(しんにょどう)
思いばかりで 翔ぶに翔べない
冬の鴨川 百合鴎
どないなっても うちぃかめへん
露地ぬらす 愛想なしの霧しぐれ 霧しぐれ
ああ...
あの人が見えへん あの人が見えへん
丸太町通(まる) 竹屋町通(たけ) 夷川通(えびす)
二条通(に) 押小路通(おし) 御池通(おいけ)
姉小路通(あね) 三条通(さん) 六角通(ろっかく)
蛸薬師通(たこ) 錦小路通(にしき)
あの人が見えへん あの人が見えへん

A Kyoto Memory Song

In the springtime, the Nenbutsu Kyogen at Mibu-dera,
Summer, the Bon Dance sending spirits home;
Carrying a shell on my back, my mannerisms,
I've waited a thousand nights, but you still have not come.
If you're struggling, come to me.
I have spent the whole night dying my skin for you,
I have dyed it,
Ah...
I can't see that person, I can't see that person,
Marutamachi-dori, Takeyamachi-dori, Ebisugawa-dori,
Nijo-dori, Oshikoji-dori, Oike-dori,
Anegokoji-dori, Sanjo-dori, Rokkaku-dori,
Takoyakushi-dori, Nishiki-koji-dori.
Rushed by the cold of a Kyoto night,
In the fall, the autumn leaves at Shinnyo-do,
My thoughts try to take flight, but I can't,
Winter, the mallards and black-headed gulls on the Kamo River,
No matter how it turns out, come to me.
The alleyways are dampened by the mist and drizzle,
Ah...
I can't see that person, I can't see that person,
Marutamachi-dori, Takeyamachi-dori, Ebisugawa-dori,
Nijo-dori, Oshikoji-dori, Oike-dori,
Anegokoji-dori, Sanjo-dori, Rokkaku-dori,
Takoyakushi-dori, Nishiki-koji-dori.
I can't see that person, I can't see that person.
