Translation of the song 緑の地平線 artist Shigeo Kusunoki

Japanese

緑の地平線

English translation

Green horizon

なぜか忘れぬ 人ゆえに

For some reason I can't forget someone

涙かくして 踊る夜は

And therefore tonight I dance hiding my tears

ぬれし瞳に すすり泣く

My wet eyes sob

リラの花さえ 懐かしや

Even the lilacs are nostalgic

わざと気強く ふりすてて

Stouthearted on purpose I shake off

無理に注(つ)がして 飲む酒も

The sake I drink unreasonably

霧の都の 夜は更けて

The night in the foggy capital goes on

夢もはかなく 散りてゆく

Dreams fleetingly disappear

山の煙りを 慕いつつ

While I yearn for the smoke of the mountains

いとし小鳩の 声きけば

When I hear the voice of a lovely bird

遠き行途(ゆくえ)に ほのぼのと

Faintly in a distant place

緑うれしや 地平線

Horizon is green and happy
