Urizun No Koro

The Time of Urizun

Urizun No Koro

Love has shattered, dreams have broken
恋破れ　夢破れ
koi yabure yume yabure
Tonight again, tears fall
今宵もまた涙
koyoi mo mata namida
I close my eyes, remembering
目を閉じて　思い出す
me wo toji te omoidasu
Red flowers, blue skies
赤花(あかばな)　青い空
akabana aoi sora
On the island, the pure birds
島の　無垢鳥(むくどり)に
shima no mukudori ni
The water of Yamato is bitter
大和(やまと)の水苦く
yamato no mizu nigaku
I want to go back, my hometown now
帰りたい　故郷(ふるさと)は今
kaeritai furusato wa ima
It's the time of Urizun
うりずんの頃
urizun no koro

Missing my mother, writing a letter
母恋し　筆便(ふでだよ)り
haha koishi fudebiyori
The scent of the tide, faintly fragrant
潮(しお)の香　仄薫(ほのかお)る
shio no ka honokaoru
Opening the package, so nostalgic
小包(つつみ)開け　懐かしい
tsutsumi ake natsukashii
Homemade oil sweets
手作り　油菓子
tezukuri aburagashi
South wind, cool and gentle
南風(はえ)よ　涼やかに
minamikaze yo suzuyaka ni
On the back of the little old man
小さき老人(おい)の背に
chiisaki oii no se ni
I want to go back, my hometown now
帰りたい　故郷(ふるさと)は今
kaeritai furusato wa ima
It's the time of Urizun
うりずんの頃
urizun no koro

The early summer, so fresh
若夏の　初初し
wakanatsu no hatsuhatsushi
Green leaves, striking my heart
緑葉　胸を打つ
midoriha mune wo utsu
Even if it's tough, I'll keep living
辛くても　生きて行く
karakute mo ikite iku
This life is a treasure
宝のこの命
takara no kono inochi
Let it resonate, beautiful sea
響け　美海(ちゅらうみ)に
hibike churaumi ni
With the sanshin, so free
三線(さんしん)　大らかに
sanshin ooraka ni
I want to go back, my hometown now
帰りたい　故郷(ふるさと)は今
kaeritai furusato wa ima
It's the time of Urizun
うりずんの頃
urizun no koro

I want to go back, my hometown now
帰りたい　故郷(ふるさと)は今
kaeritai furusato wa ima
It's the time of Urizun
うりずんの頃
urizun no koro
