In the movie “Mada yo” the characters sing a Children’s folk song that I really liked:

Lyrics:

出た出た　月が (deta deta tsuki ga)

It’s out, It’s out, The Moon is out
まるいまるい　まんまるい (ma-ru-i ma-ru-i man-marui

It’s round, It’s round, Perfectly round

盆のような　月が (bon no yoo na tsuki ga)

The moon seems like a lantern (O-bon- lantern festival)

隠れた　雲に (kakureta kumo ni)

hidden by the clouds

黒い黒い　真っ黒い (kuroi kuroi ma-kuroi)

Black, Black, Pitch Black

墨（すみ）のような　雲に (sumi no yoo na kumo ni)

Clouds black as ink

また出た　月が (mata deta tsuki ga)

The moon is still out

まるいまるい　まんまるい (marui marui man-marui)

Round, Round, Perfectly round

盆のような　月が (ban no yoo na tsuki ga)

The moon seems like a lantern

A simple song that I hope you like as much as I do…
