元気でいるか 街には慣れたか
友達出来たか 寂しかないか
お金はあるか
今度いつ帰る
城跡から見下せば 蒼く細い河
橋のたもとに 造り酒屋のレンガ煙突
この町を綿菓子に染め抜いた雪が消えれば
お前がここを出てから初めての春
手紙が無理なら 電話でもいい
「金頼む」の一言でもいい
お前の笑顔を待ちわびる
おふくろに聴かせてやってくれ
元気でいるか 街には慣れたか
友達出来たか 寂しかないか
お金はあるか
今度いつ帰る
山の麓煙吐いて列車が走る
凩が雑木林を転げ落ちて来る
銀色の毛布つけた田圃にぽつり
置き去られて雪をかぶった 案山子がひとり
お前も都会の雪景色の中で
丁度 あの案山子の様に
寂しい思いしてはいないか
体をこわしてはいないか
手紙が無理なら 電話でもいい
「金頼む」の一言でもいい
お前の笑顔を待ちわびる
おふくろに聴かせてやってくれ
元気でいるか 街には慣れたか
友達出来たか 寂しかないか
お金はあるか
今度いつ帰る
寂しかないか お金はあるか
今度いつ帰る |

Translation
How are you doing? Have you gotten used to the town yet?
Have you made friends?
You’re not lonely right?
Do you have money?
When are you coming back home?
If you look down from the castle remains
a thin cerulean river flows
And close to the bridge
the smoke from the beer-brewer's clay chimney streams
Like cotton candy
across this town.
When the snow that dyes away color disappears
You leave this place,
in the first of spring
If a letter is too much to ask for, tThen a telephone call is fine,
Even just to ask for money.
We’re waiting impatiently
to see your smiling face,
to let your mother hHear your voice.
How are you doing? Have you gotten used to the town yet?
Have you made friends? You're not lonely right?
Do you have money? When are you coming back home?
Fumes gather at the base of the mountain where a train is passing
The winter current sweeps the tree groves
And rice paddies dusted with a blanket of mist
are abandoned.
There is snow poured over
a lone scarecrow.
In the city, in the center
of its snowy landscape,
You are exactly like that scarecrow.
You’re not thinking any lonesome thoughts, right?
You’re not tired or hurt anywhere, right?
How are you doing? Have you gotten used to the town yet?
Have you made friends? You're not lonely right?
Do you have money? When are you coming back home?
If a letter is too much to ask for, then a telephone call is fine,
Even just to ask for money.
We're waiting impatiently to see your smiling face,
to let your mother hear your voice.
You're not lonely right?
Do you have money?
When are you coming back home? |
