Circle of Thanks

Arigatou No Wa

Mom's umbrella held my hand
ママの傘かさにあれたその手が
Mama no kasa ni areta sono te ga
Always protecting our family
ずっと家族を守ってきた
Zutto kazoku wo mamotte kita
I leaned on your kindness, so natural
あたりまえのやさしさに甘えた
Atarimae no yasashisa ni amaeta
Feeling that big love from afar
はなれて感じる大きな愛
Hanarete kanjiru ōkina ai
Always shy, I can't say how I feel
いつも照れくさくて言えない気持ち
Itsumo terekusakute ienai kimochi
So I put it in this song
この歌にのせて
Kono uta ni nosete

Thank you, thank you
ありがとう ありがとう
Arigatō arigatō
I hope it comes through
ちゃんと伝わるかな
Chanto tsutawaru ka na
Your smile gives me courage
その笑顔が勇気になる
Sono egao ga yūki ni naru
Thank you, thank you
ありがとう ありがとう
Arigatō arigatō
With just these words
この言葉ひとつで
Kono kotoba hitotsu de
The light keeps connecting us
光がつながってゆくよ
Hikari ga tsunagatte yuku yo

When I opened up about my pain
つらいおもいをうちあけたときに
Tsurai omoi wo uchiaketa toki ni
You stayed quiet and cried with me, friend
だまってないてくれたともだち
Damatte naite kureta tomodachi

Seeing your tearful face
そんなきみのなきがおをみてたら
Sonna kimi no naki ga o wo mitetara
Made me so happy, tears fell again
うれしくてまたなみだこぼれた
Ureshikute mata namida koboreta
I couldn't have made it this far alone
ひとりじゃここまでこれなかった
Hitori ja koko made korenakatta
I'm so glad I met you
きみにであえてよかったよ
Kimi ni deaete yokatta yo

Thank you, thank you
ありがとう ありがとう

We fought sometimes, but
ケンカもしたけど
Kenka mo shita kedo
I always knew you were on my side
いつも味方だってわかってた
Itsumo mikata datte wakatteta
Thank you, thank you

Arigatō arigatō
From now on, forever

Kore kara mo zutto
Keep watching over me with that smile
その笑顔で見守ってて
Sono egao de mimamottete

This world keeps turning
この世界はまわってる
Kono sekai wa mawatteru

Thank you, thank you

Arigatō arigatō
Running home with Dad's drawing
夕焼けの空に
Yūyake no sora ni
Under the sunset sky
パパの絵を手に走る帰り道
Papa no e wo te ni hashiru kaerimichi
Thank you, thank you
ありがとう ありがとう
Arigatō arigatō
Even in the time apart
会えない時間も
Aenai jikan mo
Those tears from that day make me stronger
あの日の涙で強くなれる
Ano hi no namida de tsuyoku nareru
