第1部 シーシャンティ
１．South Australia traditional sea shanty、採譜：小永井 晃、編曲：大森いちえい
1) In South Australia I was born, Heave away, Haul away!
In South Australia ‘round Cape Horn. And we’re bound for South Australia.
So haul away your rolling King. Heave away, Haul a way!
Oh, heal away you’ll hear me sing. And we’re bound for South Australia.
2) As I walked out one morning fair, Heave away, Haul away!
‘Twas there I met Miss Nancy Blair. And we’re bound for South Australia.
So haul away your rolling King. Heave away, Haul a way!
Oh, heal away you’ll hear me sing. And we’re bound for South Australia.
3) There’s just one thing that grieves my mind, Heave away, Haul away!
To leave Miss Nancy Blair behind. And we’re bound for South Australia.
So haul away your rolling King. Heave away, Haul a way!
Oh, heal away you’ll hear me sing. And we’re bound for South Australia.
4) I wish I was in Australia’s strand, Heave away, Haul away!
A glass of whisky in my hand. And we’re bound for South Australia.
So haul away your rolling King. Heave away, Haul a way!
Oh, heal away you’ll hear me sing. And we’re bound for South Australia.
5) A glass of rum in every hand, Heave away, Haul away!
And an extra bottle for the shanty man. And we’re bound for South Australia.
So haul away your rolling King. Heave away, Haul a way!
Oh, heal away you’ll hear me sing. And we’re bound for South Australia.
2. The Mermaid traditional sea shanty、編曲：篠田昌伸
La la la la la la la la la
1) One Friday morn, when we set sail, And our ship not far from land,
We there did espy a fair pretty maid, With a comb and a glass in her hand, her hand, her hand. With a comb and a glass in her hand.
While the raging seas did roar. And the stormy winds did blow. And we, jolly sailor boys, were up, up a loft, And the land lubbers lying down, below, below, below. And the land lubbers lying down below.
2) Then up spoke the Captain of our gallant ship, who at once our peril did see,
“I have married a wife in fair London town, and this night she a widow will be, will be, will be, And this night she a widow will be.”
For the raging seas did roar, and the stormy winds did blow, And we, jolly sailor boys, were up, up a loft, And the land lubbers lying down, below, below, below. And the land lubbers lying down below.
3) And then up spoke the little cabin boy, and a fair hair’d boy was he,
“I’ve a father and mother in fair Portsmouth town, and this night they will weep for me, for me, for me, And this night they will weep for me.”
For the raging seas did roar, and the stormy winds did blow, did blow.
4) Then three times round went our gallant ship, and three times round went she;
For the want of a lifeboat they all went down, as she sunk to the bottom of the sea, the sea, the sea,
As she sunk to the bottom of the sea,
For the raging seas did roar, and the stormy winds did blow. And we, jolly sailor boys, were up, up a loft,
And the land lubbers lying down, below, below, below. And the land lubbers lying down below, below, below, below, below, below, below, And the land lubbers lying down below, below.
3. Blow the man down traditional sea shanty、編曲：篠田昌伸
Oh, oh, blow the man down, bullies, blow the man down, to me way, ay, blow the man down.
Oh, blow the man down, bullies, blow him away, Say ! Gimme some time to blow the man down.
Oh the rags they were gone, and the chains they was jammed, to me way, ay, blow the man down,
And the skipper says he, “Let the weather be hanged.” Oh, gimme some time to blow the man.
So we’ll blow the man up, and we’ll blow the man down, to me way, ay, blow the man down,
And we’ll blow him away into Liverpool town, Oh, gimme some time to blow the man down.
Oh, oh, blow the man down, bullies, blow the man down, to me way, ay, blow the man down.
Oh, blow the man down, bullies, blow him away, Say ! Gimme some time to blow the man down.
Oh the rags they were gone, and the chains they was jammed, to me way, ay, blow the man down,
And the skipper says he, “Let the weather be hanged.” Oh, gimme some time to blow the man.
Blow the man down.
４. Whisky Johnny (ウヰスキー・ジョニー、日本語版) traditional sea shanty、採譜：A. C. Duncan、訳詞：高藤 淳
5. Lowlands traditional sea shanty、Roger Wagner合唱団より、編曲：小林正明
Lowlands, lowlands away, my John. Lowlands, lowlands away.
All in the night my true love came. Lowlands, lowlands away, my John.
All in the night my true love came. Lowlands, lowlands away.
She came to me all in my sleep. Lowlands, lowlands away, my John.
She came to me all in my sleep. Lowlands, lowlands away.
I saw her eyes were white, my love. Lowlands, lowlands away, my John.
I saw her eyes were white, my love. Lowlands, lowlands away.
‘Twas then I knew my love was dead. Low lands, low lands away, my John.
‘Twas then I knew my love was dead. Low lands, low lands away.
Low lands, low lands away, my John.
6. Round the Bay of Mexico traditional sea shanty、編曲：篠田昌伸
Heave away me bully boys. Way ay, heave away!
Heave away, why don’t ye make some noise boys? Round the bay of Mexico!
Heave away an’ ‘round goes she, Way ay, heave away!
Six for you an’ seven for me, Round the bay of Mexico!, Mexico!
Heave around an’ with a will, Way ay heave away!
If she don’t go she’ll stay there still. Round the bay of Mexico! Round the bay of Mexico!
Oh, Heave away for she’s trimmed light, Way ay heave away!

7. Rolling home traditional sea shanty、Norman Luboff合唱団より、編曲：小林正明
1) Rolling home, Rolling home, Rolling Home across the sea,
Rolling Home to dear New England, Rolling Home fairland to thee, Hm
Call all hands to man the capstan, see you cable it runs clear,
And we’ll hear and meet together, for new England home we’ll steer.
2) Rolling home, Rolling home, Rolling Home across the sea,
Rolling Home to dear New England, Rolling Home fairland to thee, Hm
And the waves we leave behind us, seem to murmur as they go,
There’s a highly welcome waiting, in the land which you go.
3) Rolling home, Rolling home, Rolling Home across the sea,
Rolling Home to dear New England, Rolling Home fairland to thee. Hm
4) Then we’ll sing in joyful chorus, Through the watches of the night.
Till we sigh for dear New England, when the dawn rings in the light.
Rolling home, Rolling home, Rolling Home across the sea,
Rolling Home to dear New England, Rolling Home dear land to thee.

La, …
Sail along, silv’ry moon, Trail along lovers’ lane. Sail along, silv’ry moon. To my love again.
In the glow of your light, Let me see her tonight, Once again hold her tight, Back in lovers’ lane.
And then the whole world will seem brighter, As we stroll hand in hand.
Two blue hearts will seem lighter, You understand.
Sail along, silv’ry moon, Trail along lovers’ lane. Sail along, silv’ry moon. To my love again.
La la la la la la, La la la la la la, La la la la la la, La la la la la.

And then the whole world will seem brighter, As we stroll hand in hand.
Two blue hearts will seem lighter, You understand.
La la la la la la, La la la, La la la la la la, La la la.
La la la la la la, La la la, La la la la la la,
And then the whole world will seem brighter, As we stroll hand in hand.
Two blue hearts will seem lighter, You understand.
Sail along, silv’ry moon, Trail along lovers’ lane. Sail along, silv’ry moon. To my love again.
To my love again, To my love again, To my love again.
2. Pearly Shells (真珠貝の歌) 作詞：Webley Edwards、作曲：Leon Pober、編曲：石黒孝子
Uh-, Uh-, Uh-, Uh-, Ah-, Ah-, Ah-, Ah-, Pearly shells.
For ev’ry grain of sand upon the beech I’ve got a kiss for you,
And I’ve got more left over for each star that twinkles in the blue.
Uh-, Uh-, Uh-, Uh-, Ah-, Ah-, Ah-, Ah-, Pearly shells.
Pearly Shells from the ocean, shining in the sun, covering the shore.
When I see them, My heart tells me that I love you more than all the little Pearly Shells.
For ev’ry grain of sand upon the beech I’ve got a kiss for you,
And I’ve got more left over for each star that twinkles in the blue.
Pearly Shells from the ocean, shining in the sun, covering the shore.
When I see them, My heart tells me that I love you more than all the little Pearly Shells.
Ah- Ah- Ah- Ah, Ah-, Pearly Shells.
3. Cruising Down the River 作詞・作曲：Eily Beadell and Nell Tollerton、編曲：篠田昌伸
Hm Hm Hm Hm
Cruising Down the River on a Sunday afternoon.
With one you love, the sun above waiting for the noon.
The old accordion playing a sentimental tune,
Cruising Down the River on a Sunday afternoon.
The birds above all sing of love, a gentle sweet refrain.
The winds around all make a sound like softly falling rain.
Just two of us together we’ll plan a honeymoon.
Cruising Down the River on a Sunday afternoon.
Hm Hm Hm Hm
4. The Leaving of Liverpool traditional sea shanty、編曲：石黒孝子
1) Farewell to you my own true love, I am going far away,
I am bound for California, But I know that I’ll return some day.
So fare thee well my own true love, and when I return united we will be,
It’s not the leaving of Liverpool that grieves me, But my darling when I think of thee.
2) I have sailed on a Yankee Sailing ship, Davy Crockett is her name,
and Burgess is the Captain of her, and they say that she’s a floating Hell.
So fare thee well my own true love, and when I return united we will be,
It’s not the leaving of Liverpool that grieves me, But my darling when I think of thee.
3) On the sun is on the harbour love, And I wish I could remain,
For I know it will be a long long time before I see you again.
So fare thee well my own true love, and when I return united we will be,
It’s not the leaving of Liverpool that grieves me, But my darling when I think of thee.
So fare thee well my own true love, and when I return united we will be,
It’s not the leaving of Liverpool that grieves me, But my darling when I think of thee.
5. Red Sails in the Sunset （夕陽に赤い帆） 作詞：Jimmy Kennedy、作曲：Hugh Williams、編曲：石黒孝子
【解説補足】
アガサ・クリスティの「オリエント急行殺人事件」の映画（1974年版）は、ショーン・コネリー、イングリッド・バーグマン、ジャクリーン・ビセット等の豪華キャストで知られてますが、イスタンブールでポアロが旧友と会ったホテルのロビーで演奏されていたのがこの曲でした。（映画通の団員情報）
T’was down where fisher folk gather, I wandered far from the throng,
I heard a fisher girl singing, And this refrain was her song.
1) Red sails in the sunset, way out on the sea, Oh carry my loved one, home safely to me.
2) He sailed at the dawning, all day I’ve been blue, Red sails in the sunset, I’m trusting in you.
Swift winds you must borrow, make straight for the shore,
We marry tomorrow, And he goes sailing no more.
3) Red sails in the sunset, way out on the sea, Oh carry my loved one, home safely to me.
4) Lu lu lu….
Swift winds you must borrow, make straight for the shore,
We marry tomorrow, And he goes sailing no more.
5) Red sails in the sunset, way out on the sea, Oh carry my loved one, home safely to me.
Home, home, home, home, safely to me.

1. 鯉のぼり＋われは海の子（男声合唱のための唱歌メドレー「ふるさとの四季」より） (初演) 編曲：源田俊一郎
2. Away from the Roll of the Sea (初演) 作詞・作曲：Allister MacGillvray、編曲：篠田昌伸
Hm, Small craft in a harbor that’s still and serene, give no indication what their ways have been.
They rock at their moorings, all nestled in dreams. Away from the roll of the sea.
Their stern lines are groaning a lullaby air, a ghost in the cuddy, a gull on the spar.
But never they whisper of journeys a far, away from the roll of the sea.
Oh had they the tongues for to speak, what tales of adventure they’d weave.
But now they are anchored to sleep and slumber alee.
Come fair winds to wake them tomorrow we pray.
Come harvest a plenty to them ev’ry day. ‘till guided by harbour lights there home to stay.
Away from the roll of the sea, away from the roll of the sea.
3. Deep River (初演) 黒人霊歌
Deep river, my home is over Jordan, deep river, Lord! I want to cross over into campground.
Deep river, my home is over Jordan, deep river, Lord! I want to cross over into campground.
Oh, don’t you want to go to the Gospel, Gospel feast, Oh! promis’d land where all is peace.
Oh! Deep river, Lord! I want cross over into campground.
Oh! Deep river, my home is over Jordan. Deep river Lord! I want cross over into campground.
I want cross over into campground.
【解説補足】
作詞作曲者不詳と書きましたが、ノースカロライナ州ギルフォード郡で生まれたという説もあります。ここには「Deep River」という川があります。19世紀のギルフォード郡周辺には奴隷解放運動を推進していたクエーカー教徒がいて、地下鉄道と呼ばれた奴隷逃亡の幇助組織を支えていました。郡民の多くは奴隷制度に反対だったようです。この鉄道の創立者の一人、Levi Coffinさんは、南北戦争前に2000人以上の奴隷を逃亡させ、自由を与えたと言われています。
このようにクエーカー教徒や関係者によって、この歌が作曲されたのではないかとも言われています。 （参考：Wikipedia、小川洋司「深い河のかなたへ」）
ここでアメリカの黒人奴隷制度について調べてみると、以下の説明がありました。
自由と平等を求めて世界に先駆けて闘われた18世紀後半のアメリカ独立革命は、その進歩的思想にもかかわらず、自国内の黒人奴隷制度を廃棄することができなかった。そればかりか、北部における部分的、漸次的廃止はみられたものの、新生共和国の基本理念を具現化した合衆国憲法は、この非人間的な制度を容認してしまった。ここに、植民地時代末期、タバコ生産の不振から、一時衰退の兆しさえあった黒人奴隷制度が、新たな歴史的条件のもとで、以前とは比べものにならないほど大規模に再生、発展する法的基礎が与えられた。（日本大百科全書）
その後、奴隷制を廃止した北部の州（自由州と呼ばれる）と奴隷制を維持した南部の州（奴隷州と呼ばれる）に分かれました。ノースカロライナ州は、自由州と奴隷州の接点に位置しているわけではない（むしろ奴隷州の真ん中にある）ので、ここのDeep Riverを渡ったら、その先が自由の地ではありません。ただ、州全体として奴隷州を選択しても、自由州となるべきという意見の地域や人々は州内に散在し、その拠点がギルフォード郡であったことから、ここで生まれたという説明がなされたのではないかと推測します。
なお、ギルフォード郡の地図（Google Map）を探しましたが、「Deep River」は見つからず「East Fork Deep River」がありました。
ヨルダン川に戻ると、この約束の地カナンは、現在のパレスチナであり、現代において、イスラエル・パレスチナ問題は深刻で、平和を願うばかりです。
4. 最上川舟唄 山形県民謡、作曲：清水 脩
【解説補足】
酒田の豪商本間家については、「本間様には及びもないが せめてなりたや殿様に」そんな俗謡が有名です。「本間家＞殿様」から、当時の本間家の繁栄ぶりが偲ばれます。
本間家旧本邸、本間美術館は，酒田の見所です。
最上川の観光の目玉「最上川下り」は、60分の基本コースに加え、船中食付き（十割そば＋芋煮）、最上川船歌付き、というのもあるそうです。
（船頭さんが日本語のみならず、お客さんに合わせて、各国語で歌うという話を以前聞きましたが、最新情報は未確認です。）
