ママ ♥ Mama

未だ見ぬあなたの姿

Mada minu anata no sugata

I hadn't seen what you look like yet

思い浮かべて声をかけた

omoi ukabete koe o kaketa

but I thought of you and spoke to you.

「元気な泣き顔見せて」

Genki na nakigao misete

"Show me a healthy, crying face!"

芽生えた命おめでとう

Mebaeta inochi omedetō

Congratulations to a life that has sprouted.

はじめましてのあの日の事が

Hajimemashite no ano hi no koto ga

That day we first met

今でも可笑しくて

ima de mo okashikute

even now seems strange to me.

あなたもパパも大泣き

anata mo papa mo ōnaki

You and Papa were crying so much,

まるで子供が二人みたい

marude kodomo ga futari mitai

you looked just like two children.

不機嫌顔のまんまで

Fukigen kao no manma de

You had a pout on your face

記念撮影　入学式

kinen satsuei nyūgakushiki

when we took a photo to remember the school entrance ceremony.

ママと同じ人見知り

Mama to onaji hitomishiri

You were just as shy as Mama.

きっと不安でこわかったね

Kitto fuan de kowakatta ne

I'm sure you were anxious and scared.

ただいまがない日は決まって

Tadaima ga nai hi wa kimatte

Of course there were days without an "I'm home,"

部屋から出ないから

heya kara denai kara

and you wouldn't come out of your room.

少し寂しいけど

sukoshi sabishii kedo

So I felt a bit disheartened,

話してくれるの待ってた

hanashite kureru no matte'ta

but I waited for you to talk to me.

悲しい言葉　辛い言葉

Kanashii kotoba tsurai kotoba

Sad words, hurtful words,

何度も聞いたけれど

nando mo kiita keredo

I heard them so often.

それでもいいよ愛してる

Sore de mo ii yo aishite'ru

But that's all right, I still love you.

嫌いになんてなれないよ

Kirai ni nante narenai yo

I couldn't possibly come to hate you.

照れくさそうに連れてきたのは

Terekusasō ni tsurete kita no wa

You brought home, all embarrassed looking,

クラスの男の子

kurasu no otoko no ko

a boy from your class.

パパと同じ優しそうな人で

Papa to onaji yasashisō na hito de

He seemed as kind as Papa,

ママもね嬉しいです

mama mo ne ureshii desu

and Mama is happy too.

甘えてばかりだったあなたは

amaete bakari datta anata wa

I always used to spoil you,

ここにはいなくて

koko ni wa inakute

and now you're not here.

手間がかからなくなるほど

tema ga kakaranaku naru hodo

I thought that I would be happy

嬉しいはずなのに

ureshii hazu na no ni

to have less work …

悲しい言葉　辛い言葉

Kanashii kotoba tsurai kotoba

Sad words, hurtful words,

何度も聞いたけれど

nando mo kiita keredo

I heard them so often.

それでもいいよ愛してる

Sore de mo ii yo aishite'ru

But that's all right, I still love you.

嫌いになんてなれないよ

Kirai ni nante narenai yo

I couldn't possibly come to hate you.

どこへ行っても何をしていても

Doko e itte mo nani o shite ite mo

Wherever you've are, whatever you're doing,

あなたはこどもで

anata wa kodomo de

you're my child,

いつでも言うよ　愛してる

itsu de mo iu yo aishite'ru

and I'll always say that I love you.

理由なんてねいらないよ

Riyū nante ne iranai yo

I don't need to have a reason.
