恋人にリンゴを I Will Give My Love An Apple
I will give my love an apple without e'er a core, I will give my love a house without e'er a door, I will give my love a palace wherein he may be, And he may unlock it without any key.
恋人にあげよう 芯の無いリンゴを 恋人にあげよう ドアのない家を 恋人にあげよう 彼が入る宮殿を 彼が開けるのに鍵はいらない
My head is the apple without e'er a core, My mind is the house without e'er a door. My heart is the palace wherein he may be, And he may unlock it without any key.
私の頭は 芯の無いリンゴ 私の気持ちは ドアのない家 私の心は 彼が入る宮殿 彼が開けるのに鍵はいらない
