about

Ab bell, Ab shakuhachi

lyrics

Giant pearls and their exquisite shells are harvested in the turquoise waters off Broome in North West Australia. From the late 19th century through to World War II Broome’s most celebrated deep-sea divers were Japanese. Over 900 Japanese headstones stand testament to the dangers of the pursuit of these ocean treasures.

巨大な真珠と美しい貝が西オーストラリアのブルームにて収穫された。其所はターコイズ色の美しい海だった。19世紀の後半から第二次世界大戦にかけてブルームで最も有名なダイバーは日本人であった。そして九百をも超える日本人墓石の数はまぎれも無く危険で人々を魅了する宝物探しの旅を物語っていた。
