Donpan Bushi

ドンパン節

[Genres]Minyo
[Schule]Min'yo

Geschichte (Takahashi Yujiro):

A lively dance and party song from Akita; title and chorus imitate percussion.

(chorus:) dondon pan pan donpanpan etc.
Talking about bragging rights, I won't lose: this is the heartland of rice, the heartland of sake;
Akita's butterbur is the best in all Japan; and Ono no Komochi came from here.
People are cute when they're drinking, cuter still when they babble drunken nonsense;
strolling along nine abreast, four on the right and four on the left.
When you listen to a song, keep quiet! Some people sing well, some don't.
Go ahead and try singing yourselves - you'll find it's harder than you think!
