水の中から　桜(はな)咲くように

水面に拡がる　宿あかり

こんな奇麗な

浮世離れの　この夜を

男と女　絵枕に

今宵流れる　あかり川

しのぶ恋路に　さらされようと

一夜(ひとよ)の逢瀬に　酔うふたり

月のしずくに

そっと抱かれて　この胸に

湯あがり化粧　匂わせる

浮いてただよう　あかり川

今を誰より　生きよじゃないか

風さえ変わるよ　追い風に

茨道でも

越えてはじめて　しっかりと

運命(さだめ)の果てに　夢も咲く

明日(あす)へ流れる　あかり川

Like the flower blooming inside the water

The light from the inn which spreads along the water surface

Such a beautiful

Otherwordly night

A man and a woman, to the emakura*

Flowing tonight, Akari River

To the romance creeping close, I am about to be exposed

The two of us getting drunk to a single night's tryst

By the moon's dew

Gently held, to this bosom

A hint of the after-shower make up

Floating and drifting, Akari River

Let's live life right now more than anyone else

Even the winds will change to a tailwind

Even if this is a thorny road

Only after crossing it, firmly

At the end of destiny, dreams will bloom

Flowing towards tomorrow, Akari River

*Makurae is ancient Japanese erotic art.

男がひとり　飲む酒は

酒つぐ相手は　なくていい

ほろほろ酔えば　想い出川を

ゆらゆら揺れて　旅をする

拾いつつ捨ててゆく　人生は

前も後ろも　風の川

曇りか晴れか　この夜が

明けなきゃ分からぬ　明日(あす)の空

あれこれ悩む　こころを叱り

しみじみ思う　胸の中

酔いどれて泣くもいい　人生は

忘れ上手な　風の川

表と裏の　道ひとつ

違えば明日の　出も違う

ハラハラ落ちる　涙の底に

キリキリ恋しい　ひとがいる

悲しみも喜びも　人生は

たどり着けない　風の川

The sake a man drinks alone is

Ok even if there's no one to pour it for him

If I quietly get drunk, the river of memories

I travel wobbling back and forth 

My life picking up and discarding is

Both behind and in front of me, a river of winds

Is it cloudy or clear this night

Unless tomorrow comes, I can't tell what tomorrow's weather would be

Holding my heart which worries about various things in check

Thinking deeply inside my chests

It's alright to get drunk and cry, a life is

Cleverly forgetting, a river of winds

Front and back, a single road

If I take a different road, tomorrow would also be different

At the source of the gently falling tears

There is a man passionately yearning for love

Both sorrow and happiness, a life is

A place which cannot be reached, a river of winds
