ゴンドラの唄
吉井勇作詞・中山晋平作曲

Gondola いのち短し 恋せよ少女(おとめ)
朱(あか)き唇 褪(あ)せぬ間に
熱き血潮の 冷えぬ間に
明日の月日は ないものを

いのち短し 恋せよ少女
いざ手をとりて 彼(か)の舟に
いざ燃ゆる頬を 君が頬に
ここには誰れも 来ぬものを

いのち短し 恋せよ少女
黒髪の色 褪せぬ間に
心のほのお 消えぬ間に
今日はふたたび 来ぬものを

Song of Gondola
(Translated by Sadao Mazuka)

Gondola Neat maiden let loving; life is so short
While still your lip is shining bright red
While still you are young and your blood is hot
Tomorrow is not the time to have a love

Neat maiden let loving; life is so short
Shall we get on the Gondola, hand in hand?
Shall we embrace, cheek to cheek?
Here is only you and me, no one disturbs us

Neat maiden let loving; life is so short
While still your hair is shining real black
While still you are young and your heart is burning
Today will not come again to you and me(2009.3.28)
