by Hakushū Kitahara (1885 - 1942)

からたちの花 (Karatachi no Hana)
Language: Japanese (日本語) 
からたちの花が咲いたよ
白い白い花が咲いたよ
からたちのとげはいたいよ
青い青い針のとげだよ
からたちは畑の垣根よ
いつもいつもとおる道だよ
からたちも秋はみのるよ
まろいまろい金のたまだよ
からたちのそばで泣いたよ
みんなみんなやさしかったよ

This song can be found in the new Japanese Art Song Anthology, available from Classical Vocal Reprints.

Romaji version:

Karatachi no hana ga saita yo
Shiroi shiroi hana ga saita yo
Karatachi no toge wa itai yo
Aoi aoi hari no toge dayo
Karatachi wa hata no kakine yo
Itsumo itsumo tōru michi dayo	
Karatachi mo aki wa minoru yo
Maroi maroi kin no tama dayo
Karatachi no soba de naita yo
Minna minna yasashikatta yo
