Translation
Today a new year, it appeared
To give delight to everybody–
In fruits and blooms, in sap and leaves,
In fragrance to impassion psyche.
Those who've left for distant place,
From far off to further away,
They are still alive today
In dulcet jingle of tuneful refrain...
Now their boon is in musical stream;
May it inspire on the journey.
The spinning of six season-times,
The rise and fall of polar ice—
Having arrived inside this ambit,
Let us pour out heart for everyone's benefit.
