Wiki :

The lyrics tell the story of a man who looks up and whistles while he is walking so that his tears will not fall. The verses of the song describe his memories and feelings. Rokusuke Ei wrote this song while coming back from a protest against the Treaty of Mutual Cooperation and Security between the United States and Japan and feeling dejected about the failure of the protest movement, but the lyrics were rendered purposefully generic so that they might refer to any lost love.[7] The English-language lyrics of the version recorded by A Taste of Honey are not a translation of the original Japanese lyrics, but instead a completely different set of lyrics arranged to the same basic melody.

The title “Sukiyaki”, a Japanese hot pot dish, does not appear in the song’s lyrics, nor does it have any connection to them; it was used only because it was short, catchy, recognizably Japanese, and more familiar to English speakers. A Newsweek Magazine columnist noted that the re-titling was like issuing “Moon River” in Japan under the title “Beef Stew”.[8]

A rough translation of lyrics: I keep my eyes to the sky as I walk, so my tear drops never fall. Remember the spring day, alone at night.

I keep my eyes to the sky as I walk, I can’t count the stars through the tears. Remember the summer day, alone at night.

Happiness lies above the clouds, Happiness lies above the sky.

I keep my eyes to the sky as I walk, so my tear drops never fall. Crying while I walk, alone at night.

Remember the autumn day, alone at night.

Sorrow lies in the shadow of the stars, sorrow lies in the shadow of the moon.

I keep my eyes to the sky as I walk, so my tear drops never fall. Crying while I walk, alone at night.

What? No “Dominique”? How could you forget one of the best songs about European religious fanatics killing each other?

Did Mel Brooks’ song in the Inquisition scene have Spanish words in it (History of the War, Part I)? If so, put it on the list.

Some of the songs by Prince sound like they are sung in a foreign language. Just asking.

“The Mamushka” from “The Adams Family”.

My Father told me the American troops favorite song in WWII was a German song “Lille Marlene” or something close to that.
