lyrics

Damp and drizzly, it’s raining again today
A mother holds an umbrella waiting for her children,
To welcome them back home.
Meanwhile, Mr sparrow seeks his food in the rain.

Rain plays ring-toss among the leaves,
Farmers in straw hats, looking busy,
Tending to the rice planting work.
Meanwhile, the goldfish blows his bubble in the rain.

Oversized rain boots, oversized raincoats,
Children in oversized rain gear.

Windows become rain curtains of glistening droplets,
"Pitter-patter," "Drizzle," they are having some conversations
Upon my black, old umbrella,
And I walk aimlessly in the rain, on my own.


湿々しとしと今日も雨が降ります
濡れて来ぬかと母は傘を持って
子供達をお迎えなのです
そして雀さんは雨の中餌探し

雨は緑の中に輪投げ遊び
蓑笠さしてお百姓さんは
忙がしそうに田植仕事です
そして泡くをぷかぷか　雨の中金魚さん

長靴ぶかぶか　ぶかぶか雨合羽
長靴ぶかぶか　ぶかぶか雨合羽の子供達

窓は光る雫の雨簾
「ぽたぽた」「しとしと」
何やら話し声
僕の黒い蛇の目の傘の上で
そして僕はとぼとぼ雨の中
ひとりぼっち…
