When I climbed up this far
You went and said to me
While you were away
I managed to get this far
I don't believe it said Monsieur Akita
How did you ever get this far said the lady
Elder sister Junko, mama Junko
I can see you in an unknown land
Lying low in an unknown wilderness
Biwa minstrels have their own bachi!
There's a hill in the town where I was born
There's a neck on a big sheep
There's a big, open window
And there's a "moon" above my head
