Translation of the song 哀しみ本線日本海 artist Masako Mori

何処へ帰るの　海鳥たちよ

Where do you return? You sea birds.

シベリアおろしの　北の海

Siberia wind of the northern sea

私には　戻る　胸もない

I don't have the heart to return

戻る　戻る　胸もない

I don't have the heart to return

もしも死んだら　あなた

If I die, my dear

あなた泣いてくれますか

Would you cry for me?

寒い　こころ　寒い

Cold, cold heart

細い汽笛が　こころに刺さる

A thin steam whistle pierces into my heart

星屑ばかりの　北の空

There's only stardust on the northern sky

涙さえ　凍る　こんな夜

Even my tears freeze on a night like this

吠える　風に　ふるえてる

I'm shivering in the howling wind

胸の痛みを　あなた

The pain of my heart, my dear

あなた聞いてくれますか

Would you listen to it?

入り江沿(づた)いに　灯りがゆれる

Along the bay the lights sway

名前も知らない　北の町

凍りつく指に　息をかけ

I puff on my frozen toes

旅の重さ　筆(ペン)をとる

And I write the weight of a journey

綴る便りを　あなた

あなた読んでくれますか

Would you read it?
