Lullaby of Takeda (Japanese Lullaby)

守りもいやがる　盆から先にゃ

雪もちらつくし　子も泣くし

Mori mo iyagaru, Bon kara saki-nya

Yuki mo chiratsuku-shi, Ko mo naku-shi

盆がきたとて　何嬉かろ

かたびらは無し　帯はなし

Bon ga kita-tote, Nani ureshi-karo

Katabira wa nashi, Obi wa nashi

Oh little baby crying, now the snow begins to fall

Sleep little baby, sleep now; don’t you cry at all

Over the distant mountain soon I will return

Back to the land I came from; for my home I yearn

早よ行きたや　この在所越えて

向うに見えるは　親の家

向うに見えるは　親の家

Hayo-mo yuki-taya, Kono zaisho koete

Mukou ni mieru wa, Oya no uchi

Mukou ni mieru wa, Oya no uchi
