Today’s children’s song is called 夕焼け小焼け・Sunset glow.
It has been raining in UK. Some of autumn leaves are still hanging at the branches though.
Some days we have a lovely sunset. Today’s song is about sunset glow which tells us a time to go home.

It is very simple lyrics which easily remember. Why don’t you learn and sing!
Ok now let’s listen the song.

2. Kodomo ga kaetta atokara wa marui ookina otsuki sama kotori ga yume o miru koro wa sora niwa kirakira kin no hoshi | After children went home A big round moon appears By the time a bird has a dream sparkling gold stars in sky |
