たこたこあがれ 
風よく受けて
雲まであがれ 
天まであがれ

絵凧に字凧 
どちらも負けず
雲まであがれ 
天まであがれ

あれあれさがる 
引け引け糸を
あれあれあがる 
離すな糸を

たこたこあがれ 
風よく受けて
雲まであがれ 
天まであがれ
天まであがれ

Romaji

 

tako tako agare
kaze yoku uke te
kumo made agare
ten made agare

e dako ni ji dako
dochira mo make zu
kumo made agare
ten made agare

are are sa garu
hike hike ito o
are are agaru
hanasu na ito o

tako tako agare
kaze yoku uke te
kumo made agare
ten made agare
ten made agare

Translation

 

Kites are rising in the sky,
Catching fair winds far up high,
Rise and rise to the clouds that float,
Fly high up in the sky!

Kites are neat in the sky,
Dancing, leaping way up high,
Rising to the white clouds,
Fly high up in the sky!

Falling, falling is the kite,
Run and run to keep it high,
Oh, the kite is rising now,
Hold, hold your string tight!

Kites are rising in the sky,
Catching fair winds far up high,
Rise and rise to the clouds that float,
Fly high up in the sky!
Fly high up in the sky!
