Translation of the lyrics
[ http://lyricstranslate.com/de/ue-o-muite-aruk%C5%8D-sukiyaki-i-look-when-i-walk.html )
I look up when I walk
Counting the stars with tearful eyes
Remembering those happy summer days
But tonight I'm all alone
I look up when I walk
So the tears won't fall
Though my heart is filled with sorrow
For tonight I'm all alone
Happiness lies beyond the clouds
Happiness lies above the sky
(Whistling)
Remembering those happy autumn days
But tonight I'm all alone
Sadness hides in the shadow of the stars
Sadness lurks in the shadow of the moon
I look up when I walk
So the tears won't fall
Though my heart is filled with sorrow
For tonight I'm all alone
(Whistling)
