Beautiful Artist(japanese & english)
Utsukushī ātisuto
Naze anata wa odorun
Watashitachi o tanoshima seru
Sekai ni tsutsuma re
Nazo no
Utsukushī ātisuto
Anata no utsukushi-sa de dansei no ikei no nen
Anata wa, sutēji o koete odoru yō ni
Nagareru ugoki
Mizu no yō niKinu no sō de ōwa reta
Utsukushī ātisuto
Anata wa, shimi jimi o kyapucha suru
Otozureru hitobito no
Utsukushī ātisuto
Anata no kao o kaku
Utsukushi-sa wa miru hito no me no naka ni aru
Himitsu shugi no sekai e no tsuma
Sore wa utsukushī no ryōhō koware yasui yō ni
Sō hokorashige ni namae o chakuyō
Utsukushī ātisuto
Ima kara ni anata ga yoba remasu.
Geisha.
Translation:
Beautiful artist
Why do you dance
To entertain us
With a world shrouded
In mystery
Beautiful artist
Men awe at your beauty
As you dance across the stage
Movement flowing
Like water
Clad in layers of silk
Beautiful artist
You capture the facination
Of those who visit
Beautiful artist
Paint your face
Beauty is in the eye of the beholder
Wife to a secretive world
Both fragile as it is beautiful
So wear the name proudly
Beautiful artist
From now on you will be called
Geisha.
