moon
above the pine trees
What a tragedy of Hototogisu
Very good!
You sing it well
It was great
Weren't you a professional?
Oh, no
Very well done, wonderful
You embarrass me
It's true. Better than fortune telling
Isn't there secondhand peep-show
gear for sale?
That's right, we haven't seen one
for a long time
A meeting like tonight
I can have it every night
Good-night
Good-night
Good-night
Good-night, I had fun
Tashiro, do that again soon
Well, good-bye
Good-bye
Are you still up?
Go to bed, go on
Afraid of wetting the bed
so you can't sleep?
If you do it again, I'll throw you out
Remember that, alright?
Yes
Then go to sleep, I'll wake you up
during the night
Good-night, grandma
Auntie
Auntie, good-night
Your father's really hardhearted
A carpenter nowadays
can find a job anywhere
To feed a kid won't take much
After all, that's your own child
Raising you this far
why desert you like this?
Your mother died long ago
Your father's a good-for-nothing
You sure are a poor kid
what will you do from now?
Fast asleep already? A kid is a kid.
Hello!
Come in and sit down
Where've you been?
The teacher's place. Grinding wheat?
Yes. What was rationed
at your place this tome?
Flour
When was that?
Yesterday, white flour
Ah, before I forget
My mother wants a pampas
grass brush
I run out of them now
She needs it to clean her false teeth
I'll keep one next time
Hello. Welcome. A very nice day
Hello. Are you finished with
the steaming I asked you?
Well, no
Day after tomorrow?
Well, no
He's a good dyer, but he takes ages
Everything's, wait till next year
That's not true
I'll hurry up, 3 or 4 days
Alright, do a good job
Yes, sure. At 1:00 PM you get
candles and matches
Tomorrow will be flour
I see, thanks for last night
Well, excuse me
Good-bye
Have some
I have something nice
I got it at teacher's
Take it
This is precious, just like the old days
It must be expensive
And it's delicious
The man who sold me a mirror
Has he a rubber hose to sell?
Oh, the man there
Would you ask him?
Sure, but it won't be cheap
I have no idea how much it is
But the mirror he sold me
I made a nice dresser
I see
What's this?
I am in a mess
Whose child?
He's homeless, who knows
if he got lost.
Or was deserted
Don't you need a boy?
Not me, I need a rubber hose
Do you know anyone
who'll take this boy?
I've put him up for 2 nights now
Come here, son
Don't give it to him, it's too good
Don't say that
He won't appreciate it, it's expensive
Come here, son
What do you have there?
Cigarette butts
What're you doing with them?
I give them to Dad
What do you have in your pocket?
Empty it
I say empty it
Nails
Filthy kid. Now, go away!
What's his father do?
Carpenter. His house in Hachioji
was destroyed
That's why he picks up nails
Even a cold-hearted father
to him it's his only father
Time has changed
When we were little, we kept
getting coins from father
To buy candy and stuff
There was nothing to worry about
in the whole world
That's right
Okiku, you were good at
blowing your nose like this
Your sleeve always shone from snot
Tane, you used to do this
Children nowadays don't do that
they're different
Yes, I think times are harder for them
They worry too much about living
picking up butts.
And nails, we shouldn't let them do it
It's not right for kids
That's right, kids should be
more carefree.
Well, I must be going
Don't forget the hose
I'll ask him
Here you are. Good-bye
Good-bye
What did she give you?
10 Yen
You should say thank you
if someone gives you something
Come here, son
Come over here
With that 10 Yen go and
buy a lottery ticket
You'll win money, I'm sure you will
You're more or less pure minded
go and buy one
You know where they sell them?
Yes
Go, and win 2,000 Yen
Don't stop to count the money
on the way back
Yes
You work hard
This is nothing. Easy job
I don't call it work
It's like killing time with
