Man: The girls of Futami are very kind, and the view of the sea and the mountains is better than elsewhere.
Woman: Although I want to be the bride of a Futami boy, the hills and valleys of the slopes of the Hennoko peninsula are harsh.
Man: When I met you in Kushi
Woman: Hennoko was some tale to tell
Man: I obsessed over you at the fork in the path where the flowers are, when I passed through it.
Man: I was waiting for you for some time, even though I had to make my way to Shuri
Woman: Parting with you was difficult
Man: Farewell!
Woman: We exchanged parting words of "Bon voyage!"
Man: Why is my heart so broken?
Man and Woman: Although the grief of war will be forgotten eventually, I want to forget it now, the fork in the path where the flowers are
