Hey hey... hey hey...
Hey hey hey hey hey
Hey hey hey hey hey hey
You must earn a good name with everyone,
and with that name, you should later win over the whole town!
Look at the suffering, look at the country, look at your home, look at the street!
You must stop and think about it,
my fine, spirited young brothers!
You who can shock anyone who dares touch you,
my vibrant young electric wires!
You must earn a good name with everyone,
and with that name, you should later win over the whole town!
...
Calling you her precious little king,
look at the mother who dotes on you!
With hands and legs grown on it,
what other living god is there?
Turning her own blood into milk,
it was your mother who fed you.
If she hadn't given birth and raised you,
there would be no child here today!
There are rogues in this town
who speak disrespectfully to their mothers.
If you walk down that same path,
your good name will be ruined!
Look at the suffering, look at the country, look at your home, look at the street!
You must stop and think about it,
my fine, spirited young brothers!
You who can shock anyone who dares touch you,
my vibrant young electric wires!
You must earn a good name with everyone,
and with that name, you should later win over the whole town!
...
Don't keep dumping garbage upon garbage,
or the entire town will begin to stink.
If you keep committing mistake after mistake,
the blame will only fall upon your mother!
Water may flow over a hard rock,
but a plough cannot till through it.
For people who have lost all love and feeling,
good advice will never sink in.
To share wisdom and teach good sense,
I have sung hundreds and hundreds of songs.
Yet into minds as hard as stone,
it never enters—what a tiresome struggle!
Look at the suffering, look at the country, look at your home, look at the street!
You must stop and think about it,
my fine, spirited young brothers!
You who can shock anyone who dares touch you,
my vibrant young electric wires!
You must earn a good name with everyone,
and with that name, you should later win over the whole town!
