流れ 流れ
Flow, flow
隅田川
Sumida River
ユーフラテスの記憶蘇る
Memories of the Euphrates resurface
渡れ 渡れ 渡れ
Cross over, cross over, cross over
流れ 流れ
Flow, flow
流れ着いた 先で
Where the river washes ashore
手を伸ばせば広がる多摩川が
If I reach out, the Tama River unfolds ahead,
アザラシをのせ下流へと
Carrying a seal downstream,
チグリス長江を渡るパンダ南無ダ
A panda crossing the Tigris and the Yangtze, Namu-dah,
カッパドキアくぐり抜けた先のラクダ墓場
Beyond the Cappadocia, a camel graveyard awaits,
生きてひけらかすな
Don't flaunt your life so boldly,
じゃぶじゃぶじゃぶリバーでウォッシュ
Splashing and washing in the river,
どんぶらこ 森羅万象
Bobbing along, the universe unfolds,
太鼓叩きノアの方舟ちょいと、のせたげて
Drumming Noah's Ark, just let me hop aboard,
飾りも褒美もここでおさらばして
Here we bid farewell to adornments and rewards,
じゃぶじゃぶ三途の向こう
Splashing beyond the Sanzu River.
