Family Song

When I wake up and wipe my drool,
めがさめてよだれをふいたら
Me ga samete yodare wo fui tara
The light by the window is smiling at me.
まどべにひかりがほほえんでた
Madobe ni hikari ga hohoendeta
The blue of the sky and the green of the earth
そらのあおおどるみどりのわ
Sora no ao odoru midori no wa
Are like a towel folded up.
たたんだたおるのあと
Tatanda taoru no ato

The siren of the ambulance
きゅうきゅうしゃのさいれんが
Kyuukyuusha no sairen ga
Tightens the strings of my heart,
むねのいとをしめるから
Mune no ito wo shimeru kara
So could you send my thoughts
ゆうがたのめろでぃーに
Yuugata no merodii ni
On the evening melody?
おもいのせてとどけてくれないか
Omoi nosete todokete kurenai ka

I just hope happiness
ただしあわせが
Tada shiawase ga
Is a little more present
いちにちでもおおく
Ichi nichi demo ooku
By my side for a day.
そばにありますように
Soba ni arimasu you ni
And may the sadness
かなしみは
Kanashimi wa
Become a bridge
つぎのあなたへの
Tsugi no anata e no
To the next you.
はしになりますように
Hashi ni narimasu you ni
We're all connected, even from afar.
とおいばしょもつながっているよ
Tooi basho mo tsunagatte iru yo

Meeting doesn’t have to mean anything,
であいにいみなどないけれど
Deai ni imi nado nai keredo
Our blood may be different,
ちのいろかたちもちがうけれど
Chi no iro katachi mo chigau keredo
But wouldn’t it be nice
いつまでもそばにいることが
Itsu made mo soba ni iru koto ga
If we could always be together?
できたらいいだろうな
Dekitara ii darou na

As the sun sets in the distance,
とおきびるにひがはねて
Tooki biru ni hi ga hanete
Lighting up the way home,
かえりみちをてらすように
Kaerimichi wo terasu you ni
Could you send my prayers
がいとうのめろでぃーに
Gaitoo no merodii ni
On the melody of the street?
いのりのせてとどけてくれないか
Inori nosete todokete kurenai ka

I just hope happiness
ただしあわせが
Tada shiawase ga
Is a little more present
いちにちでもおおく
Ichi nichi demo ooku
By my side for a day.
そばにありますように
Soba ni arimasu you ni
And may the sadness
かなしみは
Kanashimi wa
Become a bridge
つぎのあなたへの
Tsugi no anata e no
To the next you.
かけはしになるように
Kake hashi ni naru you ni

You can go anywhere,
あなたはどこでもいける
Anata wa doko demo ikeru
You can be anything.
あなたはなににでもなれる
Anata wa nani ni demo nareru

I just hope happiness
ただしあわせが
Tada shiawase ga
Is a little more present
いちにちでもおおく
Ichi nichi demo ooku
By my side for a day.
そばにありますように
Soba ni arimasu you ni
And may the sadness
かなしみは
Kanashimi wa
Become a bridge
つぎのあなたへの
Tsugi no anata e no
To the next you.
はしになりますように
Hashi ni narimasu you ni

I hope smiles
ほほえみが
Hohoemi ga
Are a little more present
いちにちでもおおく
Ichi nichi demo ooku
By my side for a day.
そばにありますように
Soba ni arimasu you ni
And may the taste of tears
なみだのあじは
Namida no aji wa
Become a bridge
つぎのあなたへの
Tsugi no anata e no
To the next you.
はしになりますように
Hashi ni narimasu you ni
We're all connected, even from afar.
とおいばしょもつながっているよ
Tooi basho mo tsunagatte iru yo
