Aishite tato nageku ni wa

Amari ni mo toki wa sugite shimata

Mada kokoro no hokorobi o

Iyasenu mama kaze ga fuiteru

Hitotsu no me de asu o mite

Hitotsu no me de kinou mitsumeteru

Kimi no ai no yurikagode

Mo ichido yasuraka ni nemuretara

Kawaita hitomi de dare ka na itekure

The real folk blues

Honto no kanashimi ga shiritai dake

Doro no kawa ni sukata

Jinsei mo waruku wa nai

Ichido kiri de owarunara

Kibou ni michita zetsubo to

Wana ga shikake rare teru kono chansu

Nani ga yoku te warui no ka

Koin no omote to ura mitai ta

Dore dake ikire wa iyasereru no darou

The real folk blues

Honto no yorokobi ga shiritai dake

Hikaru mono no subete ga ougon to wa

Kagiranai
