Translation of the song 谷間の灯 artist Chieko Baishō
谷間の灯
When It's Lamp Lighting Time in the Valley
黄昏に我が家の灯
When the lamp shines in the evening
窓にうつりしとき
In the window of my house
わが子帰る日祈る
I think of my old mother
老いし母の姿
Praying for the day
谷間灯ともしごろ
When it's lamp lighting time in the valley
いつも夢にみるは
I always dream of those days
あの日あの窓こいし
And that window of my house
ふるさとの我が家
In my home country
谷間灯ともしごろ
When it's lamp lighting time in the valley
いつも夢にみるは
I always dream of my house
なつかしき母のまつ
In my home country
ふるさとの我が家
Where my mother is waiting for me
