Yokkoto ga hazukashīdesu tomodachi to yoyyō ni kōdō
shimashita watashi wa nani o nomimashita ka? - miruku
ashamed to be drunk
acted like a drunk with friends
what did he drink? - milk!

Hōmu yokkūru o arukimasu shikashi, naze, subete
no taki no yōna hokanohito ga yurete imasu ka?
walking home drunk cool
like waterfall but why all
others are swaying?

Anata ga kiniitta riyū dorinku wain sake no mae ni.
Tashika ni, watashi chōdo Furansu kara kaette kimashita!
why drink wine you liked
sake before. True, but I
just came back from France!

Note: Google translate for you - wonder if it makes sense to our Japanese bloggers!
