Lied
Mountain ridge
1975
On my last winter in Kitatama
Tanaka wrote the lyrics
Remained in Kitatama for a long time
Saeki composed the music to the lyrics.
"Mountain Ridge"
Made by two
It was the only lied of us.
Like Schubert's "Winterreise"
We were talking about making a collection of songs.
Mountain ridge
Lyricist: Akio TANAKA
Composer: Shizuto SAEKI
Loved by the Fog
Oh man walking along the hail-stricken ridge
Where are you going?
To the one you love
Of separation inconsistent
Sadness
And
Peace of mind
Leaving behind
The falling hail
As the delicate accompaniment resonates,
The main melody is reflected in white as a traveller continues to walk along the ridge .
To the one he love
Almost contradictory thoughts
I wrote it down
This lied is
One era
Looking for something in the future
We tried to live seriously
Tanaka and Saeki themselves
Irreplaceable
It was a real message of our youth.
