隅田川のほのかな潮風
提灯あかりが ゆらゆら揺れる
Tonight the lanterns softly glow
Fireworks dancing in the summer sky
花火は空へ 高く舞い上がり
スカイツリーまで 届いてゆくよ
Cats are smiling side by side
Welcome to the happy tempura night
招き猫が 手を振れば
みんな笑顔になる
Golden shrimp and crispy dreams
Floating on the river breeze
Tempura party all night long
Everybody sing this happy song
Summer vegetables shining bright
Magic cooking warm tonight
Crunchy sound and happy hearts
Golden flavors work their charms
Tempura magic in the air
Tokyo summer everywhere
大きな海老の 天丼囲んで
みんなで食べる 幸せ時間
Freshly fried and steaming hot
Vegetable harmony sweet and soft
夏野菜に衣をつければ
魔法みたいな天ぷらパーティー
江戸の時代から続いてきた
屋形船の楽しい宴
昔の東京 今も生きてる
提灯灯る 夏の夜
From the past to present day
People laugh the same old way
花火色のスカイツリー
川にキラキラ映ってる
Cats are dancing joyfully
On the Sumida fantasy
Tempura party shining bright
Everybody feels alright
Summer river full of dreams
Tokyo sparkle softly gleams
Big shrimp dancing golden light
Happy cats tonight unite
Magic tempura full of love
Fireworks shining high above
天ぷら食べて みんな幸せ
今も昔も変わらない
Sumida River softly flows
Carrying happy hearts below

Sumida River Tempura Yakatabune
Mariko
Sumida River Tempura Yakatabune is a lively Japanese-style bossa nova inspired by traditional yakatabune boats floating along the Sumida River.
Four cheerful Edo-style cats gather beneath glowing lanterns, enjoying freshly fried tempura while fireworks light up the Tokyo night sky.
With the sparkling Skytree, beautiful river reflections, and the charm of old Tokyo, this song celebrates the warmth, flavors, and festive spirit of a Japanese summer evening.
