なくなった被爆青桐二世 Hibaku 2nd Generation Gone!!

「砂入さん、今月初めには、公園に居たのですが、14日訪ねたらいない！この間、この公園は、花見でにぎやかでした。誠に残念です。公園で小さくなって、存在していたので、誰かが踏むのではないか、折ってしまうのではないか、ボールあそびのボールがあたるのではないかと気にはなっていたのですが・・・。周辺をさがしましたが見当たりません。小さな幹に大きな葉をつけてくれるのを夢みていたのですが・・・。再挑戦はできますでしょうか。こちらでの関係者、みんな残念がっています。今年の夏はけ帰省されますか。申し訳ない報告です。」竹澤

"Mr. Sunairi, Early this month of April 14th, I went to the park to see how our Hibaku Parasol Tree was doing, then I couldn't find it, I thought I saw it a while ago. This park had many people gathering for Hanami (in Japanese tradition in the spring time, they do picnick on the ground by blossomed trees). I feel terrible. It has gotten smaller without leaves, so I was afraid someone would step on it or kids playing succor would break the seedling...I looked for it around there for a while... I was dreaming of it growing large leaves....can I try again? Many of my friends are very sad about it. Are you coming back to Hiroshima? This is an unfortunate news....."

「何か起ったのでしょうね！残念ですが仕方ないですね！是非また新たに挑戦しましょう！」砂入

"Something may have happened, it is unfortunate, but nothing we can do with it! So let's try a new seed!!"

The show would be part of an emergency timetable of programs designed to "reassure" the public in the aftermath of the attack. An altered, simplified and popular version of the life of Maria Augusta von Trapp (1905 – 1987) is depicted in the 1965 movie musical The Sound of Music .
