Written in Ashikita, Kumamoto Prefecture Japan while 'wwoof'ing on an Amanatsu orchard. Special thanks to Cuu, and Hana Hotate who encouraged this song to be written.
lyrics
We three cut oranges
from the mountain side
Three women, share the load
the last of harvest time
Sun brings the first heat of spring
Sweat and the breese cools my skin
Amanatsu
作業わけあう、
Sharing the work
山も海もひとときわけあう
With the mountain and the ocean, sharing a moment
Sweet summer
