Medaka no gakkō wa

Lyrics - Rōmaji

(Folk song from Japan)

medaka no gakkō wa kawa no naka
sotto nozoite mite goran
sotto nozoite mite goran
minna de o yūgi shiteiruyo

medaka no gakkō no medakatachi
dare ga seito ka sensei ka
dare ga seito ka sensei ka
minna de genki ni asonderu

medaka no gakkō wa ureshi sō
mizu ni nagarete tsu itsui
mizu ni nagarete tsu itsui
mizu ni nagarete tsu itsui

The medaka* school is in the river
Peek in and see
Peek in and see
Everyone is dancing

The medakas at the medaka school
Who is the student or the teacher?
Who is the student or the teacher?
Everyone is playing happily

The medaka school looks happy
Flowing in the water, swaying
Flowing in the water, swaying
Flowing in the water, swaying

*medaka = small freshwater fish from Japan

めだかの学校は　川のなか
そっとのぞいて　みてごらん
そっとのぞいて　みてごらん
みんなで　おゆうぎ　しているよ

めだかの学校の　めだかたち
だれが生徒か　先生か
だれが生徒か　先生か
みんなで　げんきに　あそんでる

めだかの学校は　うれしそう
水にながれて　つーいつい
水にながれて　つーいつい
水にながれて　つーいつい
