lyrics

(Japanese)

めぐる月日を　一つ一つ数え
変わりゆくふるさとを　遠く遠く思う

エンヤ　エンヤ　エンヤ　エンヤ
海越え遥かこの声　届けたもれ

寄せては返す　波に心預け
晴れ渡る大地に　深く祈り捧ぐ

エンヤ　エンヤ　エンヤ　エンヤ
海越え遥かこの声　届けたもれ

エンヤ　エンヤ　エンヤ　エンヤ
海越え遥かこの声　届けたもれ

エンヤ　エンヤ　エンヤ　エンヤ

(English translation)

I count the seasons, that circle round slowly one by one
Send my thoughts to my hometown, far away, far away

Enya, enya...

Please deliver my voice over the vast ocean

I lay my heart on the sea’s waves which come and go, come and go
Pray deeply to the land under the sunny sky

Enya, enya...

Please deliver my voice over the vast ocean

Enya, enya...
