Mary of Yokohama

Lyrics & Composition: Chihiro Yonekura
Arrangement: aqua.t

Isezaki Mall bustling with people at twilight
Eight-years-old, I saw you
Pochette bouncing, you traveled along the main street
I saw you, you who were like a doll

Nobody knows the days of love and the era
lying thick on those slender shoulders

Oh sublime white rose, bloom in Yokohama! Mary
Dragging along a dress, today again you stand on the street corner
Oh beautiful white rose, are you standing today too?
Entrusting your body to the numbing salty sea breeze

When the Bashamichi lights came on one by one
a small back disappeared in the crowd

I became eighteen, and in the fading scenery
your figure was in the unchanging salty sea breeze

Oh sorrowful white rose, scatter in the morning! Mary
Dressed up in pure white, today again you stand on the street corner
Oh nameless white rose, are you waiting for someone?
Sleeping in memories of the eras you've passed through

Oh sublime white rose, bloom in Yokohama! Mary
Dragging along a dress, today again you stand on the street corner
Oh beautiful white rose, are you standing today too?
-Transient dreams of the harbor- nobody knows

Oh sorrowful white rose, scatter in the morning! Mary
Dragging along a dress, today again you stand on the street corner
Oh nameless white rose, are you waiting for someone?
Sleeping in memories of the eras you've passed through

Isezaki mooru ga nigiwau yuuguredoki
Yattsu no atashi wa anata wo mimashita
Poshetto hazumase toota oodoori de
Ningyou mitai na anata wo mimashita

Kahosoi kata ni furifuritsumotta
Jidai to ai no hibi daremo shiranai

Kedakaki shiro bara yo hama ni saku no sa Merii
Doresu wo hikizutte kyou mo machikado ni tatsu
Uruwashiki shiro bara yo kyou mo tatte iru no?
Kajikamu shiokaze karada azukete

Bashamichi akari ga potsuri to tomoru koro
Chiisa na senaka wa hitogomi ni kieta

Juuhachi ni nari utsurou keshiki no naka
Kawaranai shiokaze anata no sugata

Kanashiki shiro bara yo asa ni chiru no sa Merii
Masshiro ni kikazatte kyou mo machikado ni tatsu
Na mo naki shiro bara yo dare wo matte iru no?
Toorisugita hito omoide ni nemuru

Kedakaki shiro bara yo hama ni saku no sa Merii
Doresu wo hikizutte kyou mo machikado ni tatsu
Uruwashiki shiro bara yo kyou mo tatte iru no?
―Minato no hakanaki yume―nobody knows

Kanashiki shiro bara yo asa ni chiru no sa Merii
Masshiro ni kikazatte kyou mo machikado ni tatsu
Na mo naki shiro bara yo dare wo matte iru no?
Toorisugita hito omoide ni nemuru
濱のメリー
