lyrics

祖先からの調べ

生まれる前から聴いていた
美しいメロディー　永遠の唄
嬉しい時に口ずさみ
悲しい時には聞こえてくる
愛の調べ　叡智の唄

自然の調和　天の不思議
調べが私に全てを語る
大空を見上げ口ずさむ
永遠を流れる大河に身を任せ
愛の調べ　叡智の唄

父母から子供へと　
そしてまたその次へ
血潮の中に歌い継がれる
歌い継がれてきた美しいメロディー
祖先の祈り
愛の調べ　叡智の唄

A Melody from Our Ancestor

I’d been listening before I was born
Beautiful melody, timeless song
When I’m happy, I sing
When I’m in sorrow, my spirit sings it for me

Melody of Love, Song of wisdom

Nature’s harmony, miracle of the universe
The melody tells us every story
I look up to the sky and hum the tune
Surrendering in the flow of the endless river

Melody of love, Song of Wisdom

Mother and father to a child
On and on and on…
The tune is being sung through our blood
Inherited this beautiful melody, ancestor’s prayer

Melody of love, Song of wisdom
