The wind blows and the flowers fallKaze ni fukarete hana ga chiru
Even if soaked in rain, the flowers fallAme ni nuretemo hana ga chiru
If the bloomed flowers will eventually fallSaita hana nara itsuka chiru
The flowers of love with the same fateOnaji sadame no koi no hana
Beyond the back alley is a ramen shopMukou Yokochou no RAMEN ya
And the red China dress of that girlAkai ano ko no CHINA fuku
Gently lower the roasted porkSotto me kubase CHAASHUU wo
Always two or three slicesItsumo omade ni ni san mai

Tomorrow, the day after, the day after thatAshita asatte shiasatte
The windmill of changing heartsKawaru kokoro no kazaguruma
Even if tears overflow in the heartMune ni namida ga afuretemo
A man who can't show his faceKao nya dasenai otoko nara
At the GASOLINE STAND on the cornerKado no GASOLINE STAND no
With oily slicked-back hairOIL mamire no osagegami
For some reason, the dazzling cutting edgeNaze ka mabushii itogiriba
The spilled neck catches the eyeKobore EKUBO ga ki ni kakaru

Even in tough times, words of comfortTsurai toki demo nakigoto wa
Seal the mouth with a straight lineKuchi wo musunde ichimonji
Someday, without fail, to the hometownItsuka kanarazu furusato e
Decorated in brocade, I'll returnNishiki kazatte kaeru kara
Embracing the protective pouchMamori bukuro wo dakishimete
I'll sing with a hammerOkuni namari de utau no sa
Looking at the western sky, I try to callNishi no sora mite yondemiru
The distant, kind motherTooku yasashii okanasan
