Translation of the song 花嫁人形 artist Chieko Baishō

きんらんどんすの　帯しめながら

Despite the gorgeous silk sash she wears

花嫁御寮は　なぜ泣くのだろ

Why does the bride weep?

文金島田に　髪結いながら

Despite the Bunkinnshimada coiffure she wears

花嫁御寮は　なぜ泣くのだろ

Why does the bride weep?

あねさんごっこの　花嫁人形は

The doll of a bride for little girls to play with

赤い鹿の子の　振袖着てる

Wears a long-sleeved kimono with red dappled patterns

泣けば鹿の子の　たもとがきれる

If she weeps

涙で鹿の子の　赤い紅にじむ

The red sleeves will rip off

泣くに泣かれぬ　花嫁人形は

The doll of a bride cannot weep

赤い鹿の子の　千代紙衣装

Because it wears a red dappled paper costume.
