When the Morning Glory Falls (アサガオの散る頃に)

When the Morning Glory Falls

When the Morning Glory Falls (アサガオの散る頃に)

The cicadas buzz coldly in my heart,
せみしぐれがぼくのこころにつめたくひびく
semishigure ga boku no kokoro ni tsumetaku hibiku
Soaking up the sunlight.
たいようをぬらして
taiyou wo nurashite
Hey, if only this moment could stay painted in crimson forever,
ねえずっといまがあかねいろでそまりつづければ
nee zutto ima ga akaneiro de somari tsuzukereba
Then the evening would be blissful.
ゆうもしあわせだろう
yuu mo shiawase darou

Summer's heat makes me sweat as it fades away,
なつがいじをはるほどあせばんでゆく
natsu ga iji wo haru hodo asebande yuku
With these hands, I can't hold onto you.
このてじゃきみをつなぎとめておけない
kono te ja kimi wo tsunagi tomete okenai
Ah, it all disappears at night,
ああよるにはきえてしまうの
aa yoru ni wa kiete shimau no
When the morning glories fall, so much like love.
こいによくにたあさがおのちるころに
koi ni yoku nita asagao no chiru koro ni

Watching the summer birds embrace the sea,
うみをだくなつどりがふたたびみなみへ
umi wo daku natsudori ga futatabi minami e
I can only see them fly south again.
とびさるのをみてることしかできない
tobisaru no wo miteru koto shika dekinai
Ah, the seasons keep changing,
ああきせつはうつりゆくもの
aa kisetsu wa utsuri yuku mono

Before summer ends, let’s throw away the sadness
なつがおわるまえにきれいなそらへと
natsu ga owaru mae ni kirei na sora e to
And head towards a beautiful sky.
くれたかなしみをなげすててしまおう
kureta kanashimi wo nagesutete shimaou
Ah, at night, the deep cool breeze
ああよるにはふかいすずかぜが
aa yoru ni wa fukai suzukaze ga
Brings tears when the morning glories fall.
なみだをくれたあさがおのちるころに
namida wo kureta asagao no chiru koro ni
