[Verse 1]
上野発の夜行列車 おりた時から
青森駅は 雪の中
北へ帰る人の群れは 誰も無口で
海鳴りだけを きいている

[Chorus]
私もひとり 連絡船に乗り
こごえそうな鴎見つめ
泣いていました, oh
ああ 津軽海峡冬景色, oh
Oh

[Verse 2]
ごらんあれが竜飛岬(たっぴみさき)北のはずれと
見知らぬ人が 指をさす
息でくもる窓のガラス ふいてみたけど
はるかにかすみ 見えるだけ

[Chorus]
さよならあなた 私は帰ります
風の音が胸をゆする
泣けとばかりに, oh
ああ 津軽海峡冬景色

[Bridge]
La, la-la, la, la-la-la-la
La, la-la, la, la-la-la-la
La, la-la, la, oh

[Chorus]
さよならあなた 私は帰ります
風の音が胸をゆする
泣けとばかりに, oh
ああ 津軽海峡冬景色
