Just a perfect day

まさに完璧な一日

Drink Sangria in the park

公園でサングリアを飲んで

And then later, when it gets dark we go home

暗くなったらいっしょに帰るんだ

Just a perfect day

まさに完璧な一日

Feed animals in the zoo

動物園で餌やりをして

Then later, a movie too and then home

映画を観てそれから家へ

Oh it's such a perfect day

ああなんて完璧な一日

I'm glad I spent it with you

君と過ごせてうれしいよ

Oh such a perfect day

ああなんて完璧な一日

You just keep me hanging on

君が僕を繋ぎとめてくれる

You just keep me hanging on

君が僕を繋ぎとめてくれる

Just a perfect day

まさに完璧な一日

Problems all left alone

すべての悩みを忘れて

Weekenders on our own, it's such fun

２人で短く楽しい旅に出るんだ

Just a perfect day

まさに完璧な一日

You made me forget myself

君といると自分を忘れられた

I thought I was someone else, someone good

まるで自分がほかの誰かみたいに

良い人みたいに思えたんだ

Oh it's such a perfect day

ああなんて完璧な一日

I'm glad I spent it with you

君と過ごせてうれしいよ

Oh such a perfect day

ああなんて完璧な一日

You just keep me hanging on

君が僕を繋ぎとめてくれる

You just keep me hanging on

君が僕を繋ぎとめてくれる

You're going to reap just what you sow

君は自分で蒔いたものを刈り取るだろう

“Feeling Good”　（Nina Simone Ver.)
https://abbiek.net/lyrics/feeling-good.html

Birds flyin’ high, you know how I feel
Sun in the sky, you know how I feel
Breeze driftin’ on by, you know how I feel
It’s a new dawn, it’s a new day, it’s a new life for me
Yeah, it’s a new dawn, it’s a new day, it’s a new life for me, ooooooooh
And I’m feelin’ good

Fish in the sea, you know how I feel
River runnin’ free, you know how I feel
Blossom on the tree, you know how I feel
It’s a new dawn, it’s a new day, it’s a new life for me
And I’m feelin’ good

Dragonfly out in the sun, you know what I mean, don’t you know
Butterflies all havin’ fun, you know what I mean
Sleep in peace when day is done: that’s what I mean
And this old world is a new world and a bold world for me

Stars when you shine, you know how I feel
Scent of the pine, you know how I feel
Oh, freedom is mine, and I know how I feel
It’s a new dawn, it’s a new day, it’s a new life for me

And I’m feelin’… good

空の彼方を飛ぶ鳥たち、私の気持ちが分かるでしょ

照りつける太陽よ、分かるでしょ

やさしくそよいでくる風よ、分かるでしょ

夜が明けて、新しい一日が始まる、私は私の人生を生きる

最高の気分だわ

海を泳ぐ魚たちよ、聞こえている？

あてなく流れる川よ、分かってくれる？

木々に咲く花たちにも聞いてほしい

夜が明けて、新しい一日が始まる、私は私の人生を生きる

最高の気分だわ

照りつける太陽の下に飛んできたトンボよ、分かるでしょ

自由に飛び遊ぶ蝶たち、分かるでしょ

一日が終わる時、安心して眠れる場所、それが私の求めるもの

そしてこの古かった世界は、今や新しく生まれ変わったの

私にとって自由な世界に

星たちよ、輝くその時に、私の気持ちがわかるはず

松の香りよ、私の気持ちがわかるでしょ

そう、自由をやっと掴んだの、そしてこの気持ちをかみしめる

夜が明けて、新しい一日が始まる、私は私の人生を生きる

ずっとこの瞬間を待ってたの

American folk song, famous for its covers by Bob Dylan and The Animals
"The House of the Rising Sun" is an American folk song famous for its covers by Bob Dylan and The Animals.

There are various theories about the model and origin of the name "The House of the Rising Sun", including an actual brothel or prison that existed in the 19th century, but none seem definitive.
The famous Bob Dylan version and the Animals version differ in the gender of the person depicted in the lyrics. The Bob Dylan version was released in 1962, and the Animals version was released in 1964, two years earlier.

Traditional Lyrics:

There is a house in New Orleans
They call the Rising Sun
It's been the ruin of many a poor girl
And me, O God, for one

If I had listened what Mama said
I'd be at home today
Being so young and foolish, poor boy
Let a rambler lead me astray

Go tell my baby sister
Never do like I have done
To shun that house in New Orleans
They call the Rising Sun

My mother, she's a tailor
She sewed these new blue jeans
My sweetheart, he's a drunkard, Lord
Drinks down in New Orleans

The only thing a drunkard needs
Is a suitcase and a trunk
The only time he's satisfied
Is when he's on a drunk

Fills his glasses to the brim
Passes them around
Only pleasure he gets out of life
Is hoboin' from town to town

One foot is on the platform
And the other one on the train
I'm going back to New Orleans
To wear that ball and chain

Going back to New Orleans
My race is almost run
Going back to spend the rest of my days
Beneath that Rising Sun

Animals Version:

There is a house in New Orleans
They call the Rising Sun
And it's been the ruin of many a poor boy
And God I know I'm one

My mother was a tailor
She sewed my new blue jeans
My father was a gamblin' man
Down in New Orleans

Now the only thing a gambler needs
Is a suitcase and trunk
And the only time he's satisfied
Is when he's on a drunk

Oh mother tell your children
Not to do what I have done
Spend your lives in sin and misery
In the House of the Rising Sun

Well, I got one foot on the platform
The other foot on the train
I'm goin' back to New Orleans
To wear that ball and chain

Well, there is a house in New Orleans
They call the Rising Sun
And it's been the ruin of many a poor boy
And God I know I'm one

Bob Dylan version:

There is a house down in New Orleans
They call the rising sun
And it's been the ruin of many a poor girl
And me, oh God, I'm one

My mother was a tailor
She sowed these new blue jeans
My sweetheart was a gambler
Lord, down in New Orleans

Now the only thing a gambler needs
Is a suitcase and a trunk
And the only time when he's satisfied
Is when he's on a drunk

He fills his glasses up to the brim
And he'll pass the cards around
And the only pleasure he gets out of life
Is rambling from town to town

Oh tell my baby sister
Not to do what I have done
But shun that house in New Orleans
They call the rising sun

Well with one foot on the platform
And the other foot on the train
I'm going back to New Orleans
To wear that ball and chain

I'm going back to New Orleans
My race is almost run
I'm going back to end my life
Down in the rising sun

There is a house in New Orleans
They call the rising sun
And it's been the ruin of many a poor girl
And me, oh God, I'm one
