A red sun burns
In a white ocean
On a round planet
A lone island quietly surfaces
And still, the battle
Never ends...
Slender buildings
Cram together to form a city
Clashing with the blade of long history
Who will be the victor?
The close match continues on...
I love new things
And I love fashionable things even more
I will not be swayed by the minority
Very sorry for the trouble.
("I will not say no to handing down
My formal history and traditions.
That much is my wisdom")
Manners, restraint
And bashfulness are my virtues
Sakura, momiji
The unique flavor of each season
My flowing, black hair
Will be mustard-colored tomorrow
After celebrating Christmas
I go to the Shinto shrine to welcome in the new year
This is typical for me
Very sorry for the trouble.
Get in, get in the bath
And come out, come out, after too long
Get in, get in the bath
And come out, come out, after too long
I love my kotatsu and mandarins
But I love western writing and cooking even more
I cannot deny my westernization
Very sorry for the trouble.
I love new things
And I love fashionable things even more
I will not be swayed by the minority
Very sorry for the trouble.
