Sukiyaki English translation
von The Blue Diamonds

When eating suki-sukiyaki
In Naga-Nagasaki
I saw her and forgot all the women of the world
For she was beautiful, unspeakably beautiful
So I'll dream of her alone

For suki-sukiyaki
In Naga-Nagasaki
She invited me, into her house there in the flower garden
And when I left, she wore the ring
And wanted to wait for me forever

Tell me, Tamiko, will love persist
Tell me, Tamiko, even if years pass by


When eating suki-sukiyaki
In Naga-Nagasaki
Today still, I think of that time so many years ago
My heart is heavy, her house is empty
Where we were so cheerful and happy

And she was beautiful, unspeakably beautiful
So I'll dream of her alone

Tell me, Tamiko, will love persist
Tell me, Tamiko, even if years pass by

When eating suki-sukiyaki
In Naga-Nagasaki
Today still, I think of that time so many years ago
My heart is heavy, her house is empty
Where we were so cheerful and happy

My heart is heavy, her house is empty
Where we were so cheerful and happy
Where we were so cheerful and happy
