If all the seas were one sea
If all the seas were one sea,What a great sea that would be!
If all the trees were one tree,
What a great tree that would be!
If all the axes were one axe,
What a great axe that would be!
If all the men were one man,
What a great man that would be!
And if the great man took the great axe,
And cut down the great tree,
And let it fall into the great sea,
What a great splash-splash that would be!
もし、この世の海が一つなれば
いかなる偉大な海になりぬべし
もし、この世の樹が一本なれば
いかなる偉大な樹になりぬべし
もし、この世の斧が一つなれば
いかなる偉大な斧になりぬべし
もし、この世の人が一人なれば
いかなる偉大な人になりぬべし
偉大なる人が、偉大なる斧を持ちて
偉大なる樹を切り倒し
偉大なる海に崩ずれば
いかなる偉大な飛沫とならむ
