わらべ唄 (warabe uta)

Turn, turn, keep turning
Turn the water wheel
Turn and call the sun
Turn and call the sun

Birds, insects, animals
Grass, trees, flowers
Bring the seasons of spring, summer, autumn, winter
Bring the seasons of spring, summer, autumn, winter

Turn, turn, keep turning
Turn the water wheel
Turn and call the sun
Turn and call the sun

Birds, insects, animals
Grass, trees, flowers
Grow, bear fruit
Live a little
Born, raised, died

Wind blows, rain falls
Turn the water wheel
Circles, life is revived
Circles, life is revived

Turn, revolve, keep revolving
Distant times
Revive the heart
Revive the heart

Birds, insects, animals
Grass, trees, flowers
Nurturing human kindness

Waiting, watching, protecting
Now, return
