Are wo goran yo goran yo are wo
Shinano yamanami yuki no mine
Mune ni kusuburu miren to yara wa
Yama no mukou e tonde yuke
Ina wa nanatani koko wa kutsukake
...Wataridori
Are wo goran yo goran yo are wo
Yume ga chigireru joushuuro
Akagi oroshi ni yama hototogisu
Omoidasaseru koto bakari
Tone no kawakaze koko wa tsukiyono
...Wataridori
Are wo goran yo goran yo are wo
Beni wo hito hake akane gumo
Omoi shijuukuri oosado kosado
Nami to soine no teradomari
Okesa kanashi ya koko wa arahama

Look at that, look at that
The snowy peaks of the Shinano mountains
I wish the regret that smoulders in my heart
Would fly to the other side of the mountain
Ina has seven valleys, and this is Kutsukake
...Bird of passage
Look at that, look at that
Tattered dreams on Joshu Road
The mountain winds in Akagi, the mountain cuckoos
Everything brings back memories
The river breeze in Tone, this is Tsukiyono
...Bird of passage
Look at that, look at that
A swipe of the brush paints the clouds crimson
Forty-nine leagues, Osado and Kosado
Sleeping by the waves in Teradomari
The morning's sorrow, this is Arahama
...Bird of passage
