🎙️ ナレーション（英語＋日本語）

ENGLISH
In Porto, the air smells of river mist and oak barrels. The Douro River winds through terraced vineyards, carrying the rhythm of life from the hills to the sea. Here, music flows like wine — earthy, vibrant, and filled with laughter.
The folk songs of the Minho region tell of harvests, dances, and love found between rows of grapevines. Their melodies rise with the sound of the cavaquinho — a small, four-stringed guitar whose bright tone mirrors the sunlit river. Its playful strumming invites clapping hands, spinning skirts, and voices that sing of both labor and joy.
At a village gathering, I join locals in a circle dance. Their feet beat the ground in time with the music, and I can feel centuries of tradition flowing beneath each step. Someone hands me a glass of ruby Port wine — sweet, warm, alive — and for a moment, the world feels perfectly in tune.
Next, I’ll travel south to Coimbra, a city where students and serenades meet, and the night is filled with songs of wisdom and yearning.

日本語
ポルトの空気は、川霧とオーク樽の香りに満ちている。ドウロ川は段々畑のブドウ園を縫いながら流れ、丘から海へと命のリズムを運ぶ。ここでは音楽もまたワインのように、土の香りと生命力、そして笑いに満ちている。
ミーニョ地方の民謡は、収穫や踊り、葡萄畑の恋を歌う。カヴァキーニョ――小さな四弦のギターが軽やかに響き、その音色は太陽に照らされたドウロ川の輝きのよう。陽気なリズムに手拍子が重なり、スカートが舞い、歌声が畑と共に息づく。
村の集いで輪になって踊る人々の中に混じると、大地を踏みしめる足音の中に、何世代もの記憶が流れているのを感じる。誰かが差し出したポートワインを口に含むと、甘く温かなその味が、まるで音楽のように体を満たしていった。
次回は南の街、コインブラへ――学生たちが夜を歌で満たす、知と情熱の都を訪れよう。
