Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
そっと川に 浮かせばさ
川は溢れて おかに溢れて
溢れ 溢れて
男を溺れさす
じっとこらえた 女の涙を
そっと霧に とかせばさ
流れ 流れて
男を迷わせる
涸れて乾いた 女の涙を
そっと風に 吹かせばさ
風は唸って 街に唸って
唸り 唸って
男を狂わせる
The lyrics of 梶芽衣子 (Meiko Kaji)'s song 女の呪文 tell the story of a woman's tears and the power they hold over men. The song is divided into three verses, each describing the effect of tears on nature - the river, the mist, and the wind. In the first verse, the woman's tears are gently placed on the river, causing it to overflow and drown the man. The second verse describes how the woman's tears in the mist lead the man astray. And in the third verse, the woman's dry tears are blown by the wind, causing it to howl and drive the man insane.
The lyrics of the song can be interpreted in various ways, reflecting the different interpretations of the phrase '女の呪文'(ona no jumon), which can be translated as 'a woman's spell' or 'a woman's curse'. It can be seen as a song about the power dynamics between men and women, suggesting that women are capable of using their tears to manipulate and control men. Alternatively, it may be interpreted as a warning to men about the danger of underestimating the emotional impact of women's tears.
Overall, the lyrics of 梶芽衣子 (Meiko Kaji)'s song 女の呪文 are a haunting and evocative reflection on the power of emotion and the complex dynamics between men and women.

The tears of a woman who wept and shed
Gently floats on the river
The river overflows, spilling over the hills
Overflowing, overflowing and then
Drowning the man
The tears of a woman which she holds on to
Gently flows into the mist
The mist is flowing, flowing into the night
Flowing, flowing and then
Deviating the man
The tears of the woman which dries and fades
Gently blows the wind
The wind is howling, howling in the city
Howling, howling and then
Driving the man crazy
