Jepun Song Lyric : Shiosai (Mayumi Itsuwa)

SHIOSAI
Mayumi Itsuwa (Japan)


Daremo inai minato ni tachi
Shiosai wo kikeba
Yorube nasa ni mi mo kokoro mo
Yatsureta youna

Ah mishiranu sora kono machi ni
Yume wo idaita kono watashi wo
waratte kamome

Nagare boshi ga namida no youni
Potsuri to ochitara
Haruka tooi kokyo e to
Kiteki ga yobu yo

Ah itsuka kaeru ano machi ni
Ima wa genki de iru kara to
tsutaete okure

Ah itsuka kaeru ano machi ni
Kitto miyage banashi nado wo
kikasete ageyou

SHIOSAI (The Sound Of The Waves)
Mayumi Itsuwa (Japan)


Standing in a lonely harbor
I hear the sound of the waves
I am stranded and feel lost
My body and my soul worn out

Ah, seagull, look down and ridicule me
Who ever dreamed that I would be
In this strange town
And under this strange sky

A shooting star from above
Falls to the ground like a tear drop
A steam whistle makes me pine
For my home town far away

Ah, I'll get back to my town someday
Please tell them that I'm doing fine now

Ah, I'll get back to my town someday
And I will tell them stories of my travels
