The Sandpipers (鷸鳥合唱團) 


是美國1960年代的一個合唱團， 


歌聲配音以溫柔見長，


古巴名歌関達拉美那(Guantanamera)是他們最有名的歌曲。





這首Chotto matte kudasai （日語：請等一下）


以他們一貫的柔和和聲，


娓娓道來失去情人的哀傷，


很動人心。





Chotto matte kudasai (The Sandpipers)





Chotto matte kudasai


Please excuse me while I cry


Seems sayonara means goodbye


But no one ever told me why


Sakura was in the spring


When our hearts found songs to sing


But Sakura has gone away


And so has our love, so they say





Chotto matte kudasai


Please excuse me while I cry


Without your love I would die


Please never leave me kudasai


Chotto matte kudasai


Please excuse me while I cry


Without your love I would die


Never leave me kudasai





Chotto matte kudasai


Please excuse me while I cry


Without your love I would die


Please never leave me kudasai


Chotto matte kudasai


Please excuse me while I cry


Without your love I would die


Please never say goodbye
