そら走れティティナ
私の可愛いティティナ
そらとばせティティナ
さあ急げティティナ
夕日の沈まぬ中に
吹雪をついて何処までも
さあ走れティティナ
そら急げティティナ
隣村は未だ遠い
白樺の丘をこえて
はるかなひろのをこえて
雪は煙る地平線
さあ行こうティティナ
そらとばせティティナ
わたしの可愛いティティナ
あの峠をひとつこえりゃ
隣村はもう近い
たのしいペチカは待つよ
隣村は近い
さあ行こうティティナ
そら走れティティナ
わたしの可愛いティティナ
そらとばせティティナ
さあいそげティティナ
夕陽の沈まぬ中に
鳴らせよ鈴の音高く
赤い橇は行く
さあ走れティティナ
そら急げティティナ
隣村は未だ遠い
から松の丘をこえて
遥かな峠をこえて
雪は煙る地平線
さあ行こうティティナ
そらとばせティティナ
わたしの可愛いティティナ
お前のひく赤い橇が
隣村に着くころは
木の間に三日月様が
ほのかにのぼるだろう ヘイ
The lyrics to 生田恵子's song 東京ティティナ (Tokyo Titina) describe a journey on a red sled, a girl's beloved Titina, through a snowstorm. The song begins with an invitation to begin the journey, followed by urging Titina to run and emphasizing her cuteness. The lyrics then encourage Titina to run faster because the neighboring village is still far away but can be reached by crossing a mountain pass. As they continue on their journey, the sunset creates a beautiful scene but is accompanied by a snowstorm. The lyrics invite Titina to run faster, and the singer tells her to ring her bell loud as the sled moves forward. Eventually, the journey crosses a mountain and a forest filled with pine trees, and the singer tells Titina they will reach the neighboring village soon enough, where a warm fire and enjoyable moments await them.
The song emphasizes the idea of friendship and the endearing relationship between the singer and Titina. The lyrics romanticize the journey through snowstorms and scenery, effectively creating a sense of a magical and happy winter landscape in which the journey takes place. The lyrics are straightforward and describe the journey, creating a sense of happy escapism that is easy to embrace and imagine.
