Three years have gone by and here I am

Back in Nagasaki, in Cho Cho's garden

Dear Heaven! With my american wife, Katy

Gee! Katy loves Cho Cho's baby.

Cho Cho, I can't confront her, I am still married to her

I remember my friend Sharpless over there,

he warned me I was a bounder

But I really loved Cho Cho San, in those days

When I was her Man

Why? Why did I come back?

Gosh I wish Suzuki would be quiet

I don't want to be here

I don't want to be anywhere around here

When they tell Cho Cho San, that I found another love

I know this time I made a fatal error

Sharpless warned me and I didn't care

How on Earth I can remain here

Where death now fills the air

Remembering only one thing, my wedding ring

Goodbye Cho Cho San! Goodbye!

She marked my going forever

Counting the steady flow of days and hours

And now in this room, there are just dead flowers

Goodbye Cho Cho San! Goodbye
