女に生まれて
三山ひろし Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

女に生まれて女で生きて
やっと掴んだ倖せよ
世間は噂をするけれど
離したくないこの恋を
貴方(あなた) 貴方ひとりを信じて生きる

化粧をしてないおんなの素顔
好きと云ったわ抱きしめた

取り柄は何(なん)にもないけれど
尽くしたいのよ真実(まごころ)で
貴方貴方以外は見えない私

あなたの苗字(みょうじ)にわたしの名前
酒のしずくで書いてみる
ふたりでおんなじ夢をみて

同じ夜明けを迎えたい
貴方貴方ひとりが生き甲斐だから

The song "Onna ni Umarete" by 三山ひろし talks about being born a woman and living as a woman. The lyrics suggest that the singer has finally found happiness by embracing her femininity. The singer acknowledges that society gossips about her, but she doesn't care because she doesn't want to let go of her love. She professes her trust in living for one person only (presumably her lover) and declares that she is willing to give everything to be true to her heart. The lyrics suggest that she is not concerned about the conventional things that women are supposed to prize, such as cosmetics and beauty products. She is happy to present her natural face to the world, and she loves to be held by her loved one. She doesn't have anything special, but she has a heart that wants to serve her partner in whatever way possible. The singer dreams of sharing the same future with her partner, experiencing the same ups and downs, reaching the same goals, and living her life for this person only.
