English Translation
Those times I couldn't sleep, Mama always told me
Stories about the country that sunk into the sea,
And the island that floats into the sky
It was like I was in a dream, like in a dream
I was patiently watching your long eyelashes
I recall, how big, how big
Mama's light fluffy bed was
But, the waves carried it away,
The room where I was scolded those afternoons
This red sea looks like flames, it frightens me
But, the waves carry it away
This island is an empty garden
The evening sea is like a dark mirror, it frightens me
