からたちの花が咲いたよ。
白い白い花が咲いたよ。

からたちのとげはいたいよ。
青い青い針のとげだよ。

からたちは畑の垣根よ。
いつもいつも通る道だよ。

からたちも秋はみのるよ。
まろいまろい金のたまだよ。

からたちのそばで泣いたよ。
みんなみんなやさしかつたよ。

からたちの花が咲いたよ。
白い白い花が咲いたよ。

karatachi no hana ga saita yo
shiroi shiroi hana ga saito yo

karatachi no toge wa itai yo
aoi aoi hari no toge dayo

karatachi wa hata no kakine yo
itsumo itsumo tooru michi dayo

karatachi mo aki wa minoru yo
maroi maroi kin no tama dayo

karatachi no soba de naita yo
minna minna yasashi katta yo

karatachi no hana ga saita yo
shiroi shiroi hana ga saita yo
Les fleurs de karatachi-orange se sont épanouies.
Les fleurs blanches pures se sont épanouies.

Les épines de karatachi-orange sont piquantes.
Elles sont des aiguilles vertes foncées.

Les karatachi-oranges font une haie autour du champ
À côté du chemin, oû je passe tous les jours.

Même les karatachi-oranges donnent des fruits en automne.
Ils sont des boules d'or parfaitement rondes.

J'ai pleuré à côté des karatachi-oranges
Tout le monde était tellement doux.

Les fleurs de karatachi-orange se sont épanouies.
Les fleurs blanches pures se sont épanouies.
The flowers of karatachi-orange are in bloom.
The pure white flowers are in bloom.

The thorns of karatchi-orange give you pain.
They are deep green needles.

The karatachi-oranges make a hedge around the field,
Beside the road I go every day.

In Autumn even the karatachi-oranges bear fruits.
They are perfectly round golden balls.

I sobbed by the karatachi-oranges.
'Cause every one was so kind to me.

The flowers of karatachi-orange are in bloom.
The pure white flowers are in bloom.
The Japanese song of the Poncirus tree flowers:
Karatachi-no-Hana

The fourth carriage of the train showcases the white flowers of the karatachi (trifoliate orange) plant that blooms in early May. Today a stone monument engraved with the lyrics of "Karatachi-no-Hana" ("Trifoliate Orange Flowers"), a children's song penned by famous local poet Hakushu Kitahara, rests next to Yadomi Elementary School. The lyrics describe the charming scenery along the route that Kitahara used to walk to and from this school during his childhood.
