Poppies (1919)

赤く咲くのは けしの花 (Red is the poppies)
白く咲くのは 百合の花 (White is the lilies)
どう咲きゃいいのさ (I’m fine whichever is blooming)
この私 夢は夜ひらく (Night is unveiled by dreams)

十五、十六、十七と (Fifteen, sixteen, seventeen)
私の人生暗かった (My life was dark)
過去はどんなに暗くとも (No matter how dark the past)
夢は夜ひらく (Night is unveiled by dreams)

昨日マ一坊 今日トミ一 (Ma yesterday, Tommy today)
明日はジョ一ジか ケン坊か (George or Ken tomorrow)
恋ははかなく過ぎて行き (Love is futile and fleeting)
夢は夜ひらく (Night is unveiled by dreams)

夜咲くネオンは 嘘の花 (Neon lights that bloom at night are flowers of lies)
夜飛ぶ蝶々も 嘘の花 (Butterflies that fly at night are also flowers of lies)
嘘を肴に 酒をくみゃ (Drinking wine with lies as a snack)
夢は夜ひらく (Night is unveiled by dreams)

前を見るよな 柄じゃない (Not up to standard when looking forward)
うしろ向くよな 柄じゃない (Not up to standard when looking back)
よそ見してたら 泣きを見た (Saw someone crying when looking aside)
夢は夜ひらく (Night is unveiled by dreams)

一から十まで 馬鹿でした (Although having been a fool from beginning to end)
馬鹿にゃ未練はないけれど (I don’t regret a bit for being a fool)
忘れられない 奴ばかり (All these guys that I cannot forget)
夢は夜ひらく 夢は夜ひらく (Night is unveiled by dreams)
