LYRICS
In his 1895 song collection, Rudolf Dittrich gives the following lyrics, in Japanese, German, and English.

Japanese
KOI TO YU TA TO TE
Koi to yu ta to te, -
Yuka riyou ka Sado ye?!
Choito, choito!
Sado wa shi-ju-ku ri!
Nanto sho!?
Nami no uye to ichi
Yonde ko ka?
Koi, koi!

German
WENN DU MICH AUCH ZU DIR RUFEN WÜRDEST
Wenn du mich auch zu dir rufen würdest,-
Wie kann ich nach Sado gehen?!
Höre, höre!
Sado liegt 49 Meilen weit entfernt!
Was soll ich thun!?
Soll ich über die Wellen,
Oder soll ich dich hierherrufen?
Komm', komm'!

English
EVEN IF YOU SHOULD CALL ME TO YOU!
Even if you should call me to you,
How can I get to Sado?
Listen, listen!
Sado lies 49 miles away!
What am I to do!?
Am I to cross the waves,
Or shall I call you hither?
Come! Come!
