Old children's songs of Japan 童謡
♪ 浜辺の歌 The song of a sands beach
あした浜辺を さまよえば
昔のことぞ しのばるる
風の音よ 雲のさまよ
よする波も かいの色も
ゆうべ浜辺を
もとおれば昔の人ぞ
しのばるる
寄する波よ かえす波よ
月の色も 星のかげも
If I am walking along the sands beach in the morning, I will be reminded of old memory.
They are "sound of a wind", "the form of clouds", "the wave comeing in", and "the color of a shellfish."
If I am looking at the beach in the evening, I will be reminded of old friends.
Are together with "restless waves", "color of the moon", and "starlight" .
♪ ふじの山 Mt.Fuji
あたまを雲の上に出し
四方の山を見おろして
かみなりさまを下にきく
ふじは日本一の山
青ぞら高くそびえたち
からだに雪のきものきて
かすみのすそをとおくひく
ふじは日本一の山
Clouds are under her head. And she is looking down on the mountains in the circumference. Thunder is sounding around her leg. Mt. Fuji is the highest mountain in Japan.
She rises up toward the blue sky. She wears the kimono made in snow. Her skirt made with the haze is extended to a distance. Mt. Fuji is the highest mountain in Japan.
