Текст и перевод песни 小林幸子 - 母ひとり

母ひとり

苦労した 母の手のひら
我が子らの 為だけに 生きて
倖せと聞けば 倖せだよと
小さく うなずく 微笑
いつまでも いつまでも 母ひとり
いつまでも いつまでも 母ひとり

髪を梳く 指の細さよ
愛おしく こみあげる 涙
長生きをしてね 杖をついても
想い出 訪ねて 歩こう
いつまでも いつまでも 母ひとり
いつまでも いつまでも 母ひとり

アルバムの 若き写真を
自慢する あどけない姿
人生は いいよ 楽しかったと
遠くを 見つめる 横顔
いつまでも いつまでも 母ひとり
いつまでも いつまでも 母ひとり

いつまでも いつまでも 母ひとり
いつまでも いつまでも 母ひとり

Mother Alone

The palms of my mother's hands, which have toiled so much,
Have lived only for the sake of her children,
When asked about happiness, she says she is happy,
A small, nodding smile.
Always and forever, Mother alone,
Always and forever, Mother alone.

The slenderness of her fingers as she combs my hair,
Tears well up in my eyes, filled with love.
May you live long and well, even with a cane,
Let us visit and walk through our memories together.
Always and forever, Mother alone,
Always and forever, Mother alone.

The youthful photograph in the album,
A proud, innocent expression.
Life is good, she says, I have enjoyed it,
Her profile gazing into the distance.
Always and forever, Mother alone,
Always and forever, Mother alone.

Always and forever, Mother alone,
Always and forever, Mother alone.
