Текст и перевод песни Fuyumi Sakamoto - あばれ太鼓

あばれ太鼓

どうせ死ぬときゃ 裸じゃないか
あれも夢なら これも夢
愚痴はいうまい 玄界そだち

男命を 情にかけて
たたく太鼓の 暴れ打ち

酒と喧嘩は あとへはひかぬ
意地と度胸の 勇み駒
惚れちゃならない 義理あるひとに
知って照らすか 片割れ月に
男泣きする 松五郎

櫓太鼓の 灯がゆれて
揃い浴衣の 夏がゆく
ばちのさばきは 人には負けぬ
なんでさばけぬ 男のこころ
小倉名代は 無法松

Roaring Drum

Well, we're all bare when we die
That was a dream, and this is a dream
I won't complain, I'm a Kyushu man

My life as a man, I stake on love
The drums I play are wild and free

I can't back down from a drink or a fight
A brave and spirited steed
I shouldn't fall in love with someone I'm sworn to
The half moon knows and shines
Matsugoro, a man's man who cries

The scaffolding drum's lights flicker
The summer ends in matching yukata
My drumsticks' skill, I'll not be beat
Why can't I play the drums of my heart so well?
The legend of Kokura, the Outlaw Pine
