Jonkara Onna Bushi
Nagayama Yoko
Jonkara Woman's Song
From the bottom of the snowy hill
Wrapped in a red apron
A woman of the floating market
Burning, smoldering, bursting
There's someone I can't leave behind
I want you to understand, Jonkara Jonkara
The bees buzz, the trees rustle
No words of farewell are spoken
Like a woman deep in love
A man's heart is lighter than the wind
Hidden by the moon, left as is
I want you to let me be, Jonkara Jonkara
The sky, tinted with a raw color
Spring passes by for me
If you knock on the floating market
Even a thread will break
Difficult, painful, cruel
A woman's song entwined in fingers
Jonkara Jonkara, I want you
