Yoakemae hakata no otoko ga

Before dawn, the men of Hakata
<br>Hoist the float on their shoulders, oisa oisa, like the wind
<br>Each year when I see your red towel
<br>I fall in love all over again
<br>The bustling excitement of the festival
<br>A woman's song
<br>
<br>In your festival clothes, you pull the ropes tight
<br>As the men sing oisa oisa in their moment of triumph
<br>The float is your lover; the way you risk your life
<br>As you raise it high is enough to make me jealous
<br>Heart-pounding, trembling with excitement
<br>A woman's song
<br>
<br>Celebrate the auspicious young pines
<br>The young pines
<br>
<br>Water splashes on the first float
<br>As they race along, oisa oisa, to the sound of the drums
<br>Don't slow your pace until you reach the turning place
<br>Charm me with your manly strength
<br>I offer this up to you in your bravery
<br>A woman's song
