漕げよ、少女よ…
漕げよ、少女よ、／空高く。／決して地面を見ずに。／／虹を探してるなら、／空を見上げて。／虹は見つからないさ、／下を向いたままじゃ。／／人生は寂しいかも、／でもいつも同じじゃない。／晴れの日もあれば、／雨の日もある。／／ – チャーリー・チャップリン［サー・チャールズ・スペンサー・チャップリン］ (1889 – 1977): 「ブランコを漕げ、少女よ」、映画『サーカス』の冒頭の歌（【歌える訳詞】岡本健(おかもとけん) (1963 – )） (Claudio KirnerによるPixabayからの画像) (Google Translateのエンジンを使用した、Sound of Textによるテキスト読み上げ) More »
