Lyrics

Japanese

ねんねんころりよ　おころりよ。
ぼうやはよい子だ　ねんねんしな。

ぼうやのお守りは　どこへ行った。
あの山こえて　里へ行った。

里のみやげに　何もろうた。
でんでん太鼓に　笙の笛。

Romanized Japanese

Nen, nen korori yo, Okorori yo.
Bōya wa yoi koda, Nenneshina~

Bōya no omori wa, Doko e itta?
Ano yama koete, sato e itta.

Sato no miyagē ni, nani morōta
Denden taiko ni, shō no fue.

English translation

Hushabye, Hushabye!
My good Baby, Sleep!

Where did my boy's baby-sitter go?
Beyond that mountain, back to her home.

As a souvenir from her home, what did you get?
A toy drum and a shō flute.
