Song of the Month for December

今月の歌（こんげつのうた）　

お正月（おしょうがつ）New Year's Day


　　






１．もういくつねると　お正月（しょうがつ）　

お正月には　凧（たこ）あげて

こまをまわして　遊（あそ）びましょう

はやく来（こ）い来い　お正月

How many more nights to sleep until New Year's Day

In the New Year's holidays, let's fly a kite

Let's play with a spinning top

Come, come quickly, New Year's Day

２．もういくつねると　お正月

お正月には　まりついて

おいばねついて　遊びましょう

はやく来い来い　お正月
 
How many nights to sleep until New Year's Day?

In the New Year's holidays, let's bounce a ball

Let's play with a shuttlecock

Come come quickly, New Year's Day

    I like listening to both songs. The first one is really cheerful, but the second one has a peaceful tranquility to it too.

    I love the 70's Japanese pop sound of the first one
