餞 ♥ Farewell Gift

♫

頬掠める　桜の花　

Hoho kasumeru sakura no hana

Cherry blossoms that graze your cheek

見慣れた光景すらも

minareta kōkei sura mo

and even the scenery I'm used to

今日は何か違っていて　

kyō wa nanika chigatte ite

today something's different about them

君のもとへ急いだ

kimi no moto e isoida

so I rushed to your side.

幼き頃の輝く目で　

Osanaki koro no kagayaku me de

Do you still remember the sky that you looked up

見あげた空　まだ覚えてる？

miageta sora mada oboete'ru?

to see with your young, glistening eyes?

あの頃とは　違う空が　

Ano koro to wa chigau sora ga

It's because we've been found by

見つけられたから

mitsukerareta kara

a sky that's changed since then.

花びら　舞散る　遊歩道　

Hanabira maichiru yūhodō

The promenade with petals fluttering down,

笑いながら　歩いてた

warainagara aruite'ta

we would walk along it smiling.

君の前では涙なんか　

Kimi no mae de wa namida nanka

Shedding tears—I won't do that

流さないでいよう

nagasanaide iyō

in front of you.

別れの杯　誓うサイカイ　

Wakare no sakazuki chikau saikai

A cup of farewell, a vow of reunion,

遠く旅立つキミへ

tōku tabitatsu kimi e

to you who are leaving to go far away

僕から送ろう　この歌を　

boku kara okurō kono uta o

I send this song from me.

君に幸あれ

Kimi ni sachi are

Fare thee well.

訳もなくはしゃいでいた　

Wake mo naku hashaide ita

Every day, when we would

毎日が特別だった

mainichi ga tokubetsu datta

muck around just for fun, was special.

何気ない日常から　

Nanigenai nichijō kara

From our everyday life

新しい何か探した

atarashii nanika sagashita

we looked for something new.

四季の移り変わりの中で　

Shiki no utsurikawari no naka de

In the shifting of the seasons

変わらないもの信じてた

kawaranai mono shinjite'ta

we believed in something that wouldn't change.

未来　紡ぐ　旅の中で　

Mirai tsumugu tabi no naka de

In the journeys that the future weaves

忘れないでいて

wasurenaide ite

don't ever forget.

語り明かした　河川敷　

Katariakashita kasenjiki

We'd talk all night by the banks of the river

カタチのないもの　恐れてた

katachi no nai mono osorete'ta

fearing something we couldn't put a shape to.

誰もが自分の道　見つけ　

Dare mo ga jibun no michi mitsuke

Because everyone finds their own path

歩きだしてゆくから

arukidashite yuku kara

and starts to follow it.

♫

誰もが誰かのためじゃなくて　

Dare mo ga dareka no tame ja nakute

Every one lives their own lives,

自分のために生きてる

jibun no tame ni ikite'ru

not someone else's.

胸の痛みすら愛しく　

Mune no itami sura itoshiku

The day will come, you know,

思う日が来るよね

omou hi ga kuru yo ne

when we'll think fondly of the pain in our hearts.

ここから見えるあの景色は　

Koko kara mieru ano keshiki wa

The scenes that we will see from now on,

輝けるものじゃなくても

kagayakeru mono ja nakute mo

even if they cannot shine,

もう何も　迷わない　

mō nani mo mayowanai

lead to a path that goes on for ever

永遠に続く道へ

towa ni tsuzuku michi e

where nothing is uncertain anymore.
