SAKURA by Ikimono Gakari

Sakura hirahira maiorite ochite
The cherry blossoms fell, fluttering down
Yureru omoi no take wo dakishimeta
Embracing every bit of my fluttering love
Kimi to haru ni negai shi ano yume wa
Even now, I’m dreaming the dream I prayed for with you that spring
Ima mo miete iru yo sakura maichiru
The cherry blossoms scatter

Densha kara mieta no wa
From the train I could see
Itsuka no omokage
The traces of one day
Futari de kayotta haru no oohashi
The big bridge we crossed together
Sotsugyou no toki ga kite
Graduation time came
Kimi wa machi wo deta
And you left town
Irozuku kawabe ni ano hi wo sagasu no
On the colourful riverbank, I search for that day

Sorezore no michi wo erabi
We went our separate ways
Futari wa haru wo oeta
And brought our spring to an end
Sakihokoru mirai wa
My future is in full bloom
Atashi wo aserasete
But it fills me with panic
Odakyuusen no mado ni
This year, once again, the cherry blossoms are reflected
Kotoshi mo sakura ga utsuru
In the window of the Odakyuu train
Kimi no koe ga kono mune ni
In my heart
Kikoete kuru yo
I hear your voice
Sakura hirahira maiorite ochite
The cherry blossoms fell, fluttering down
Yureru omoi no take wo dakishimeta
Embracing every bit of my fluttering love
Kimi to haru ni negai shi ano yume wa
Even now, I’m dreaming the dream I prayed for with you that spring
Ima mo miete iru yo sakura maichiru
The cherry blossoms scatter

Kaki kaketa tegami ni wa
The start of my letter to you
“Genki de iru yo” to
Says “I’m doing OK”
Chiisa na uso wa misukasareru ne
You’ll see through that little lie, won’t you?
Meguriyuku kono machi mo
Even the town going past
Haru wo ukeirete
Is taking in the spring
Kotoshi mo ano hana ga tsubomi wo hiraku
The flowers are opening their buds again this year

Kimi ga inai hibi wo koete
I’ll get through these days without you
Atashi mo otona ni natte iku
And I, too, will grow up
Kouyatte subete wasurete iku no kana
Will I forget everything?
“Hontou ni suki dattan da”
“I really loved you”
Sakura ni te wo nobasu
I hold out my hands to the cherry blossoms
Kono omoi ga ima haru ni tsutsumarete iku yo
Now my love is wrapped in the spring

Sakura hirahira maiorite ochite
The cherry blossoms fell, fluttering down
Yureru omoi no take wo dakiyoseta
Embracing every bit of my fluttering love
Kimi ga kureshi tsuyoki ano kotoba wa
Even now, the strong words you gave me
Ima mo mune ni nokoru sakura maiyuku
Remain in my heart; the cherry blossoms dance

Sakura hirahira maiorite ochite
The cherry blossoms fell, fluttering down
Yureru omoi no take wo dakishimeta
Embracing every bit of my fluttering love
Tooki haru ni yume mi shi ano hibi wa
Those days I dreamed of on that distant spring day
Sora ni kiete iku yo
Disappear into the sky

Sakura hirahira maiorite ochite
The cherry blossoms fell, fluttering down
Haru no sono mukou e to aruki dasu
And I walk out into the spring
Kimi to haru ni chikai shi kono yume wo tsuyoku
I clutch the dream I promised you that spring
Mune ni daite sakura maichiru
Tightly to my chest; the cherry blossoms dance
