ISLAND BLUES

My fond memories of “Amami-Island”
While she is tearing under a “cycad tree”, “shell ginger flowers” are swaying in the wind.
Island lady with long black hair
Oh... Island lady

She is wondering her loved one is waking or sleeping
Seashore plovers’ tweeting makes her feel lonely
She can’t sleep at night when south wind is blowing
Oh... she can’t sleep

Summer dancing continues for seven days and nights
Everyone knows his ship will leave this island from “NAZE harbor” at moonlit evening
Oh... His ship will leave

She has been dreaming to let him wear “Ohshima-tsumugi”
All her heart is only to him
Island lady
Oh... Island lady

(Remark)
“Amami-Island” is in the southern sea in Japan
“cycad tree” and “shell ginger flower” are popular tropical plants in southern islands
“NAZE harbor” is the main port of Amami-Island
“Ohshima-tsumugi” is a brand of Japanese kimono which has been weaved in Amami-Island

( This song is a wistful love song of a young island lady)
