春の日に涙を流す離任式
Haru no hi ni namida wo nagasu rinin shiki
Spring is come,
at teachers' parting ceremony
I shed tears
山登り頂上に着き深呼吸
yama-nobori choujou ni tsuki shin-kokyu
I reach the top
of a green mountain,
A deep breath
NAKAI, Hirokazu
新芽ふき揺れる柳や青き空
shinme fuki yureru yanagi ya aoki sora
New buds come out
on swinging willow boughs
against the blue sky
