Текст песни и перевод на английский Kiyoshi Hikawa - 兄弟船

兄弟船

波の谷間に 命の花が
ふたつ並んで 咲いている
兄弟船は 親父のかたみ
型は古いが しけにはつよい
おれと兄貴のヨ
夢の揺り籠さ

陸に上って 酒のむときは
いつもはりあう 恋仇
けれども沖の漁場に着けば
やけに気の合う 兄弟鴎
力合わせてヨ
網を捲きあげる

たったひとりのおふくろさんに
楽な暮らしを させたくて
兄弟船は 真冬の海へ
雪の簾をくぐって進む
熱いこの血はヨ
おやじゆずりだぜ

Brother Ship

In the valley of waves, flowers of life,
Two side-by-side, blooming bright.
This brother ship, our father's pride,
Though old in style, storms she can ride.
For my brother and me, my love,
A cradle of dreams, sent from above.

Ashore, when we drink, you see,
We rival for love, just he and me.
But out on the fishing grounds so wide,
We're brother seagulls, side-by-side.
With combined strength, just you and I, my love,
We haul the nets high above.

For our dear mother, all alone,
A comfortable life, we want to be shown.
So this brother ship, in winter's cold sea,
Through curtains of snow, sails valiantly.
This burning blood, my dear, you see,
A legacy from our father, to me.
