Lyrics - Rōmaji
(Melody by Sadaichi Okano, Lyrics by Toshiyuki Takano, 1910)
Haru ga kita, haru ga kita, doko ni kita
Yama ni kita, sato ni kita, no ni mo kita
Hana ga saku, hana ga saku, doko ni saku
Yama ni saku, sato ni saku, no ni mo saku
Tori ga naku, tori ga naku, doko de naku
Yama de naku, sato de naku, no de mo naku
English Translation – Spring has come
Spring has come, spring has come
Here in the mountains, here in the village, here in the fields.
Flowers bloom, flowers bloom,
Here in the mountains, here in the village, here in the fields.
Birds are singing, birds are singing,
Here in the mountains, here in the village, here in the fields.

Japanese – 春が来た
はるが きた はるが きた どこに きた
やまに きた さとに きた のにも きた
はなが さく はなが さく どこに さく
やまに さく さとに さく のにも さく
とりが なく とりが なく どこで なく
やまで なく さとで なく のでも なく
