DescriptionTranslation of lyrics from Japanese, by Kuniko and Kendall Brown:
The Cloud and the Mountain / Notchevála toótchka zolotáya (Japanese and English lyrics)
“Evening, a golden hue
Rests on the mountains,
When morning comes, dancing
In the rising sun, they’re smiling.
Pure white dew,
Lurks in the shadows of rocks,
Lorn and alone,
Remaining alert through the night,
Wrapped in thought, lost in weeping."
The Cloud and the Mountain / Notchevála toótchka zolotáya (Japanese and English lyrics)
“Evening, a golden hue
Rests on the mountains,
When morning comes, dancing
In the rising sun, they’re smiling.
Pure white dew,
Lurks in the shadows of rocks,
Lorn and alone,
Remaining alert through the night,
Wrapped in thought, lost in weeping."
