【ハイサイおじさん Haisai Ojisan】 沖縄民謡ポップス 三線 Okinawa Minyo & Sanshin

“Haisai Ojisan (Hey There, Uncle!) is a legendary Okinawan folk-rock song by Kina Shoukichi (喜納昌吉), originally written when he was just 13 years old. Bursting with cheeky humour and youthful rebellion, the song is a playful exchange between a bold young man and a grumpy old uncle—touching on everything from Japanese sake to romance, bald heads, and moustaches, all with a wink and a smile. But Haisai Ojisan is more than just a catchy tune—it’s a pioneering piece of Uchinaa (Okinawan) pop, blending Okinawan folk rhythms (like those found in kachaashii dance) with rock and pop sensibilities. The word "Haisai" is a warm Okinawan greeting (used by men; women say "Haitai") that sets the communal, welcoming tone of the track. The song’s upbeat vibe hides a bittersweet origin: Kina wrote it as a tribute to a sake-loving neighbor—an uncle figure—who struggled after the war. Behind the humor is a quiet resilience, born from Okinawa’s complex history, including the lasting trauma of the Battle of Okinawa. This layer of depth gives the song its heart, turning laughter into a form of healing. Here are the rough lyrics: 1. Haisai Ojisan! Haisai Ojisan! Hey Uncle! Hey Uncle! Do you still have any of that liquor you were drinking last night? If there's some left, won’t you share it with me? Hey, hey kid—hey, brat! You're asking me if I have any of that three-cup (540ml) bottle left? Seriously? You’re asking me that? Hey, brat! Well then, Uncle, If the three-cup bottle is almost over, How about giving me a whole issho-bin (1.8L bottle)? 2. Haisai Ojisan! Haisai Ojisan! Hey Uncle! Hey Uncle! I’m about the right age now, and I want a wife— Won’t you give me your daughter? Hey, hey kid—hey, brat! You're still just a punk, and you’ve got a smart mouth. Looking for a wife already? Hey, brat! Well then, Uncle, Are you saying I should wait until I’m over twenty, Over thirty, and turning gray before I marry? 3. Haisai Ojisan! Haisai Ojisan! Hey Uncle! Hey Uncle! That bald spot on your head is huge! Like a fish-shaped bald spot—they call it "Taiwan bald," right? Hey, hey kid—hey, brat! Bald guys are smart, you know. All my ancestors were geniuses! Well then, Uncle, Maybe I’ll get some cosmetic surgery And put some bald patches all over my head too. 4. Haisai Ojisan! Haisai Ojisan! Hey Uncle! Hey Uncle! Your mustache is pretty ridiculous— It looks like whiskers on a ceiling rat! Hey, hey kid—hey, brat! You’re laughing at my mustache, but Facial hair is what makes a man attractive! Well then, Uncle, I can’t let you outdo me— Maybe I’ll start growing some rat whiskers myself tomorrow! 5. Haisai Ojisan! Haisai Ojisan! Hey Uncle! Hey Uncle! That lady you were chatting with yesterday sure was charming! Maybe you should go out and meet someone like her sometime? Hey, hey kid—hey, brat! You know, I’ve got connections all over—Tsuji, Nakashima, Watanji! I’m a big deal in a lot of these places! Well then, Uncle, If you’re always out and about like that, No wonder I’m stuck here broke and left behind! #沖縄民謡 #三線 #沖縄音楽 #島唄 #琉球文化 #カチャーシー #民謡 #沖縄伝統音楽 #三線弾き #琉球音楽 #沖縄 #沖縄の歌 #三線民謡 #沖縄島唄
