Posted on September 22, 2021 by mkchatinjapanese

Please refer to my previous blog about Tukimi, Jyugoya. Last night was the the day which a beautiful full moon was in the sky. Today’s Japanese children’s song is associated to Jyugoya.

Usagi (a Rabbit)

Otuki sam – a moon

Miru – look at

Haneru – to jump

Japanese lyric in Romaji and English translation

うさぎ・USAGI/RABBITS

Japanese Lyric	English Lyric
1.Usagi, usagi Nani mite haneru Jyu-goya otukisama mite haneru	Rabbits, rabbits What are you looking at and jumping?Looking at a full moon and jumping
2.. Repeat above	repeat

Now let’s sing!

Hope you will enjoy this song with your childrenle and be able to learn some Japanese words! Please let me know if you enjoyed it or not!
