Sayonara
Farewell

nakayoshi nakayoshi

itsumo tanoshiku utano aisatsu

sayonara sayonara

We are good friends, good friends,

we are always happy, we greet everyone with singing.

Farewell, farewell!

In 1883, this song was published in the second part of the first Japanese music book for elementary school entitled “Birds’ twittering”. The current lyrics are by Yoshio Katsu.
