hgankarcrona san, Thank you very much for helping me understand the title of the song. Yes, it is clear now. Wonderful song. Great Orchestra. Skillful videography. Unforgettable singer.

近所のお風呂屋さんでよく大衆演劇を家族みんなで観るのですが、この曲を使った演技にはいつも感動してしまいます。河内おとこ節などでみせる元気な中村さんも素敵ですが、こういった叙情溢れる姿も心動かす美しさがあり、とても素敵ですね。

@shamsee100 Mother of Eyelid ... Later in the song it goes: When I want to meet mother, I close my eyes ... or eyelids in Japanese. Yearning!

Mitsuko Nakamura san's performances has always amazed me for her powerful singing and emotions. Among her performances, I specially like this one. It seems to me that this is just a part of an Opera like story. Is this so? Or is this a complete song in itself? I also have difficulty making out the title of this song, "Mother of Eyelid". I am too ignorant to make sense of it. Thank you very much for uploading this wonderful performance of the great singer.

歌のうまい歌手はゴマンといる。 しかし、味のある歌手は数える程だ。この歌い手は味があるねェ・・・・・・・・・ とくに瞼の母を唄っている時の意気込みはこちらに伝わってくるものがある。曲調が古いなんて関係ない。気が入っているか、どうかという事か？　　いい選曲だ。

子供の頃にこの歌を聞いた覚えがある。 今風に言えば軽演劇の役者さんがこの歌で踊っていた。（古臭い・肌に合わない・最近までそう思っていた） 中村美津子さんの瞼の母を聞き思いがぶっ飛んだ。プロの歌い手だ。銭の取れる歌手だ。 ワビとは？サビとは？歌わなくて良い・・・・・ 語りで問い掛けてくる。

Ichiban!! Nakamura san brings to life anything she sings. Lovely. Dramatic. Out of this world. The best. Ichiban. Thank you for sharing. What is the title of this song? Is it possible to get the lyrics or just a rough English translation of this song? Thank you again Baikon san for sharing.
