曲に合わせた英文歌詞

1<br />
We're children of the lake, off to wander 'round.<br />
This journey fills my heart with, intense happiness.<br />
Rising mist evaporates, ripples come and go.<br />
Shiga's Miyako dear, bid farewell for now.<br />

2<br />
Pine trees are very green, on sands very white.<br />
Omatsugasato is, a young maiden's home.<br />
Bush of red camellia,  hides her teary face.<br />
She's weeping o'er a lost love, much too short to last.

3<br />
We drift from wave to wave, straying aimlessly.<br />
On shore we see red fire, brings back memories.<br />
With our sights set nowhere, rolling with the waves.<br />
Today is Imazu or, Nagahama huh.

4<br />
Azure blue flower garden, revered coral shrine.<br />
Full of old-time stories, Chikubushima.<br />
In the hands of Buddha, one young maiden lies.<br />
She's sleeping in compassion, resting peacefully.

5<br />
Sharp arrows buried deeply, way into the ground.<br />
Abundant summer grasses, a moat still remains.<br />
Standing in an old castle, all alone oneself.<br />
Hira and Ibuki too, only but a dream.

6<br />
Saigoku pilgrimage, Chomeiji.<br />
Dispel this world's impureness, very faraway.<br />
Golden waves on which we weave, rowing all we can.<br />
Tell us my friends your stories, with your fervent hearts.


'''元の歌詞'''　作詞：小口太郎<br />
1<br />
われは湖の子　さすらいの<br />
旅にしあれば　しみじみと<br />
のぼる狭霧や　さざなみの<br />
志賀の都よ　いざさらば<br />

2<br />
松は緑に　砂白き<br />
雄松が里の　乙女子は<br />
赤い椿の　森蔭に<br />
はかない恋に　泣くとかや<br />

3<br />
浪のまにまに　漂えば<br />
赤い泊火　懐かしみ<br />
行方定めぬ　浪枕<br />
今日は今津か　長浜か<br />

4<br />
瑠璃の花園　珊瑚の宮<br />
古い伝えの　竹生島<br />
仏の御手に　いだかれて<br />
ねむれ乙女子  やすらけく<br />

5<br />
矢の根は　深く埋もれて<br />
夏草しげき　堀のあと<br />
古城にひとり　佇めば<br />
比良も伊吹も　夢のごと<br />

6<br />
西国十番　長命寺<br />
汚れの現世　遠く去りて<br />
黄金の波に  いざ漕がん<br />
語れ我が友　熱き心<br />
