川の流れと人の世は
澱みもあれば 渓流もある
義理の重きを忘れたら
立つ瀬なくして沈むだ…
黙って おとこは川になる
 
風にこぼれた花びらを
浮かべて川に情がある
生きる辛さに耐えながら
人は優しさ恋しがる…
忍んで おとこは川になる
 
過去とうらみは流れても
流しちゃならぬ恩がある
他人の情けをかりながら
明日へ漕ぎだす舟もある…
揺られて おとこは川になる

River

The world we live in is like the flow of a river;
In some places are stagnant pools; in others are rushing rapids.
If we forget the importance of our duties,
We lose our standing, and we may even sink,
But the uncomplaining man will become himself the river.
 
This river will fall in love with
A floating petal escaped from the wind.
While they navigate the trials of life
And yearn for the kindness of those around them,
The enduring man will become himself the river.
 
Even if bitterness and the sins of yesteryear can be washed away,
There is a debt of gratitude that must be borne.
If he borrows the compassion of others,
He will find it a boat to row toward tomorrow,
And the man rocked by the current will become himself the river.
