| 悲しい酒(Sad Sake)Midnight in some lonely bar Nursing my cup of cheer He's gone, and now my sweet liqueur Is flooded with bitter tears I'm drinking―can't help thinking Of what we left behind Mem'ries afloat in my glass As they echo through my mind Now he's gone, but memories of him remain So many regrets... I drink to forget But tonight, drinking makes me even sadder Oh, sake！ Tell me, how？ How can I give him up？ Sake, my fine fickle friend Please, won't you have a heart？ Stay, stay！ My pain to wash away And give me a brand-new start One drink, and then another, Now let your feelings fly; “I did it all, gave it all For my love, for love do I cry.” My heart, it bravely proclaims, “Life all alone is fine！” Why, then, am I here in this lonely bar, Weeping in my wine？ I loved him―but I lost him This world just can't be right！ Whispering“goodbye！” As I drink, as I cry The long, lonely night. | Masumi Ormandy | 石本美由起・英語詞：Steve Sacks | 古賀政男 | Jonathan Katz | Midnight in some lonely bar Nursing my cup of cheer He's gone, and now my sweet liqueur Is flooded with bitter tears I'm drinking―can't help thinking Of what we left behind Mem'ries afloat in my glass As they echo through my mind Now he's gone, but memories of him remain So many regrets...

| 川の流れのように(Like a River Flowing)I have walked, I have walked Down a long, narrow road But of where I would go, little knowing Looking back, looking back There's a town far away The town I left so long ago I walk this hard, bumpy road With no map to guide my wand'ring feet Twisting here, turning there Leading me to life bittersweet Aaah...just like a river gently flowing Through the sands of time, Ages come and go; now they're here, now they're past Aaah...the golden twilight gentry glowing Lighting up my life As I walk beside the river Arriving at last 生きることは 旅すること 終わりのない この道 愛する人 そばに連れて 夢 探しながら Some days, a cold rain will fall And the mire will coat our aching feet Yet one day, the sun will shine Bringing skies of blue, and joy complete ああ 川の流れのように おだやかにこの身を まかせていたい ああ 川の流れのように 移りゆく季節 雪どけを 待ちながら Aaah...just like a river gently flowing I will give my all Peacefully surrender my future, my past Aaah...what happiness in simply knowing That forevermore Life's a river gently flowing Arriving at last | Masumi Ormandy | 秋元康・英語詞：Steve Sacks | 見岳章 | Jonathan Katz | I have walked, I have walked Down a long, narrow road But of where I would go, little knowing Looking back, looking back There's a town far away The town I left so long ago I walk this hard, bumpy road With no map to guide my wand'ring feet Twisting here, turning there Leading me to life bittersweet Aaah...just like a river gently flowing Through the sands of time, Ages come and go; now they're here, now they're past Aaah...the golden twilight gentry glowing Lighting up my life As I walk beside the river Arriving at last 生きることは 旅すること 終わりのない この道 愛する人 そばに連れて 夢 探しながら Some days, a cold rain will fall And the mire will coat our aching feet Yet one day, the sun will shine Bringing skies of blue, and joy complete ああ 川の流れのように おだやかにこの身を まかせていたい ああ 川の流れのように 移りゆく季節 雪どけを 待ちながら Aaah...just like a river gently flowing I will give my all Peacefully surrender my future, my past Aaah...what happiness in simply knowing That forevermore Life's a river gently flowing Arriving at last |
| リンゴの唄(Apple Song)As I draw the apple red Closer to these lips of mine Up above, the blue sky watches Silent all the time Never a word do apples say They keep it all locked up inside But I know how my apple feels And what it conceals Lovely, lovely apple mine, Sweet little apple red and fine That young girl is so sublime Such a fine and mellow girl She's the apple of my eye The oyster's favorite pearl People are talking--what is this？ Who spread the rumor, I don't know They say a cute little sneeze or two Means she thinks of you Lovely, lovely girl of mine, Sweet little maiden young and fine In the morning, when we meet In the evening, when we part Whispering sweet nothings To my rosy young sweetheart You turn to me so dreamily Without any words it's clear to see “Tomorrow, I'll be seeing you. But for now adieu.” Lovely, lovely sweetheart mine, Sweet little maiden young and fine Shall we sing this winsome tune This endearing apple song？ It's more fun when sung by two Let's sing it all day long When we all sing it, everyone Grows happier with each lyric sung Now we know how the apple feels Notihing to conceal Merry, merry friends of mine, We'll have a future bright and fine | Masumi Ormandy | サトウハチロー・英語詞：Jonathan Katz | 万城目正 | Jonathan Katz | As I draw the apple red Closer to these lips of mine Up above, the blue sky watches Silent all the time Never a word do apples say They keep it all locked up inside But I know how my apple feels And what it conceals Lovely, lovely apple mine, Sweet little apple red and fine That young girl is so sublime Such a fine and mellow girl She's the apple of my eye The oyster's favorite pearl People are talking--what is this？ Who spread the rumor, I don't know They say a cute little sneeze or two Means she thinks of you Lovely, lovely girl of mine, Sweet little maiden young and fine In the morning, when we meet In the evening, when we part Whispering sweet nothings To my rosy young sweetheart You turn to me so dreamily Without any words it's clear to see “Tomorrow, I'll be seeing you.
