Sunday song

Original song 'Genbaku wo yurusumaji' (No More Atomic Bombs)

Music by Koki Kinoshita

Lyrics by Ishiji Asada

In the place where our city was destroyed,
Where we buried the ashes of the ones that we loved,
There the green grass grew and the white waving weeds,
Deadly the harvest of two atom bombs.

Then brothers and sisters you must watch, and take care

That the third atom bomb never comes.

The sky hangs like a shroud overhead
And the sun's in the cage of the black, lowering cloud.
No birds fly in the leaden sky,
Deadly the harvest of two atom bombs.

Then, brothers and sisters you must watch, and take care
That the third atom bomb never comes,

Gentle rain gathers poison from the sky
And the fish carry death in the depths of the sea;
Fishing boats are idle, their owners are blind,
Deadly the harvest of two atom bombs.

Then, landsmen and seamen you must watch, and take care
That the third atom bomb never comes,

All that men have created with their hands
And their minds, for the glory of the world we live in,
Now it can be smashed, in a moment destroyed,
Deadly the harvest of two atom bombs.

Then, people of the world, you must watch, and take care
That the third atom bomb never comes.
