Translation of the song 涙の酒 artist Keiko Fuji

男一途の火の恋を

The devoted burning love of a man

何んで涙でけされよう

Why would I want to erase it with tears?

未練ばかりがただつのる

Only lingering attachments keep growing

夜の暗さを はしご酒

I go pub crawling in the dark of the night

浴びておぼれて なお酔えぬ

I dash myself and drown but I can't get drunk

酒のにがさをかみしめる

I reflect upon the bitterness of sake

露地の屋台の灯にさえも

Even with the lights of the stands in the alley

男心が 泣ける夜

A man's heart is moved to tears tonight

涙ぐんでた あの顔に

Tears started to appear on that face

なんで嘘などあるもんか

How the hell would it be a lie?

噂なんだぜ 噂だと

They're nothing but rumors

胸にきかせる はしご酒

I go pub crawling telling to my chest
