#1
「ずっとお前の味方やから」と見送ってくれた
胸に刻んで今日も私は歌い続けます。

#2
気も合わないし 酒臭いし 顔も見たくない
だけどケンカの相手としては
なかなか骨がある

#3
つらい時にも力を合わせ 7人で乗り切れ
多けりゃ多いほうがいいから
もう一人増えるかも
ママ、もう一人、お願い!

#4
ラジオ・テレビ 無くてよかった
だからいつだって
ばあちゃんと僕 顔を見ながら
話すこと出来たよね

All
あー早いものですね 一年なんて
あー今年も夏が終わりますね
あの時あなたが叱ってくれた
言葉が私を変えてくれました
残暑お見舞い申し上げます
一年一度の
私を変えてくれた あなたへ
ココロのカタチです

#5
歌とスポーツ 生かす為には
会社勤めより
「オヤジが生きた 同じ世界へ進め」
と言ったヤツ

#6
「お前の歌は最高やから 
アメリカの人に 聞かせようぜ」
と始めた旅が 今に続いてます

#7
オレがケガしてピンチのときに 
駆けつけてくれた
あの時照れて言えなかったが
本当にありがとう

#8
人生変えたオーディションで
隣に座ってた
まだこれからだ 走り続けよう
俺たちのペースで

All
あー早いものですね 一年なんて
あー今年も夏が終わりますね
あの時あなたが勇気をくれた
一人じゃないよと 教えてくれました
残暑お見舞い申し上げます
あなたの言葉に
生かされている 私からの 
勇気のカタチです

Translation

 

#1
You said, "We are always on your side" as you saw me off.
I still cherish your words deeply as I continue to appreciate my singing career

#2
You and I don't really get along. You reek of alcohol and I'd rather not to see your face
But you've got a great stamina when it comes to fights.
Thanks for all the great matches.

#3
When times are tough, make sure to help each other out and make it through together
More the merrier
Maybe you'll get another sibling in the future
Honey, why don't you make another baby for them?

#4
I'm glad you didn't have a TV or a radio at home
We were able to look at each other
and spend precious time
talking and listening at all times

All
Oh, how time flies. One year is such a short time.
Oh, this summer is almost ending.
Thank you for scolding me back then
Your words made my life turn around
Here is my end-of-the-summer greeting card
It is only sent once a year
You have changed my life
Here is a greeting card expressing my gratitude

#5
If you want to utilize your strength of athleticism and vocal skills,
It's better to avoid an average white-collar job
and "choose the same career as your dad’s instead"
That's what my buddy said to me.

#6
You said, "Your voice is amazing.
Why don't we go to America and let them hear your voice?"
That's how we started our journey and it's been going on till this day

#7
When I got injured and was going through rough times,
you came over to see me right away.
I was too shy to express my gratitude back then
So let me say this right here: Thank you so much.

#8
During the most important audition of my life
You were sitting next to me
You said to me, "It's not over yet.
Let's keep going. Let's keep our good spirits."

All
Oh, how time flies. One year is such a short time.
Oh, this summer is almost ending.
Thank you for giving me courage back then
Your words made me realize that I wasn’t alone
Here is my end-of-the-summer greeting card
Each and every day,
your words are like fuel for my soul
And this is the song expressing my courage from you
