The counting song of the way home
+
I'm taking the long way back
+
To the place where I can see the setting sun
+
Look! Here and there the lined up white clouds
+
Are, bit by bit, slowly turning red
+
Somehow, I feel it was a good day
+
I hope there's fine weather tomorrow
+
I look back many, many times
+
While waving my small hand
+
From far away, carried on the wind, I can hear
+
The voices of children saying "See you tomorrow"
+
Look! Little by little, the sun is setting
+
Little by little, the stars come out to shine
+
Somehow, I feel it was a good day
+
I hope there's fine weather tomorrow
+
The sound of the river that sparkles as it flows and
+
The wobbling, wavering moon
+
Will I return? Will I go back?
+
As I look up at the sky, suddenly
+
I wonder if someone is waiting
+
In the moonlight on the way home
+
Stop the voices of the bugs
+
Look! Here and there, there are lighted windows
+
Here and there, many dreams are being dreamed
+
Somehow, I feel it was a good day
+
I hope there's fine weather tomorrow
+
I hope there's fine weather tomorrow
