Kanji

 

春の光に包まれたままで
一人息をひそめ泣いていた
さよならも言えずに
離れたあの人の面影が何故か
蘇る

何もしてあげられなかったのに
いつも見守ってくれていたこと
伝えたかったのに
あなたはもう何も答えてくれない
遠い人

ありがとうって言ったら 永遠にさよならになる
果てしないこの旅で どこかでいつか会おう

もっと色んなこと話したかった
いつか叶うものと思っていた
安らかな寝顔に
そっと触れたくちびるにこぼれてゆく
涙が

桜の雨になる 夢が今虹をかけてく
あなたは空を行く 私を一人にして

永遠のおやすみ
ささやいて見上げたこの街の空は
青くて

桜の雨が降る 夢が今虹を越えてく
あなたは空を行く 私を一人残して

ありがとうって言ったら 永遠にさよならになる
果てしないこの旅で どこかでいつか会える…

Translation

 

While encircled by the light of spring
Alone, hiding my breathing, I cried
Without even saying farewell, we parted
For some reason, reminders of that person
are now reviving

Though I couldn't do a thing for you
You always watched over me
Though I wanted to tell you that
You won't respond to me anymore,
you're so distant

If I said "thank you" it will become like "farewell forever"
On this endless journey let's meet again somewhere, sometime

I wanted to tell you about so much more
I'd believed that it was something I could accomplish
On your peaceful sleeping face
I gently touched you with lips, moistened
by falling tears

Becoming a rain of cherry blossoms my dreams are now creating a rainbow
You fly across the sky making me all alone

A rest for eternity
Murmuring, looking up, the sky above the town
was blue

Becoming a rain of cherry blossoms my dreams are now crossing the rainbow
You fly across the sky leaving me all alone

If I said "thank you" it will become like "farewell forever"
On this endless journey I'll be able to see you again somewhere, sometime
