The Tailor Shop In Enbizaka
Let's start working.
In the corner of Enbizaka lived a tailoress
Known to others as a woman of virtue and skill
Her only worry was the infidelity of her beloved
“He doesn't come home despite having a woman like me”
But I must persist in my work, with my scissors in hand
The sharper the scissors that I had received from my mother were, the better they cut
That day, the town was peaceful as any other day
I saw him on the main street, but who was the woman with him?
Well-suited in her red kimono, he seemed to know that beautiful woman very well
It was an unbearable sight for me, so I left
But I must persist in my work, with my scissors in hand
Even as tears stream down my face, I must repair the kimono
The town had an anxious air about it; something had happened
He was seen before the bridge, but who was the woman with him?
A pretty girl had nestled against him in his sorrowful state
The green obi suits her perfectly; he must like that sort of woman
But I must persist in my work, with my scissors in hand
Even if my eyes are bloodshot, I must repair the obi Even
The town was in a sudden uproar; it has happened again
He was seen in a hairpin store, but who was the woman with him?
He bought yellow hairpins as a gift to a very young girl
What on earth is he doing? I really have no choice now
But I must persist in my work, with my scissors in hand
Isn't the scissors colored like this too? I must work on that day too
At last, I have finished my work
If you will not come and meet me
Then I will go to you
Scissors have two blades.
For scissors to work, both blades need to rub past each other in synchronized movements.
In that same way does a married couple work.
This I learned from my mother.
The red kimono, the green obi
The yellow hairpins are in my hair
I've become the woman you desired
Well? Aren't I pretty?
Now the whole town was in a racket; a man had been killed
It seems that a family of four had also been killled
He was a terrible person; how could he still say “nice to meet you” and “hello”
I wasn'ta stranger; I wasn'ta stranger at all
Today the neighbourhood is chaotic
But I must persist in my work, with my scissors in hand
The sharper the scissors that I had stained in red were, the better they cut
