Sarai

Departure

Sarai

Without being able to throw away distant dreams, I left my hometownTooi yume sute kirezu ni furusato wo suteta
The gentle sunlight of spring sways at the small stationOdayaka na haru no hizashi ga yureru chiisana eki
More than parting, more than sadness, my longing is strongWakare yori kanashimi yori akogare wa tsuyoku
Loneliness and a departure alone with my back turnedSabishisa to senaka awase no hitori kiri no tabidachi

By the window of the moving trainUgoki hajimeta kisha no madobe wo
I was silently watching only the passing sceneryNagarete yuku keshiki dake wo jitto miteita
The sky of the Sarai, with cherry blossom petals falling like snowSakura fubuki no sarai no sora wa
So blue it's sad, my heart trembledKanashii hodo aoku sunde mune ga furueta

In love, spending sleepless nights in loveKoi wo shite koi ni yabure nemurezu ni sugosu
I gazed at the stars in the night sky through the glass window of the apartmentApaato no mado garasu goshi miteta yozora no hoshi
If I'm going to dream in this town, I need to be a little strongerKono machi de yume ou nara mou sukoshi tsuyoku
If not, I might lose to the flow of timeNara nakerya toki no nagare ni makete shimai sou de

On the morning street corner that started to moveUgoki hajimeta asa no machikado
I looked up at the sky while being buried in the crowdHito no mure ni umore nagara sora wo miageta
To the sky of the Sarai, with cherry blossom petals falling like snowSakura fubuki no sarai no sora he
My heart trembled at the flowing white cloudsNagarete yuku shiroi kumo ni mune ga furueta

The more we separate, the more we grow apartHanarereba hanareru hodo naosara ni tsunoru
This feeling opens an old album that can't be forgottenKono omoi wasurerarezu ni hiraku furui arubamu
Wrapped in the days of my young parentsWakai hi no chichi to haha ni tsutsumarete sugita
I live while tracing the gentle daysYawaraka na hibi no kurashi wo nazori nagara ikiru

When I close my eyes, the scenery that floats upMabuta tojireba ukabu keshiki ga
Someday, while lost, will return to the hometown of loveMayoi nagara itsuka kaeru ai no furusato
To the sky of the Sarai, with cherry blossom petals falling like snowSakura fubuki no sarai no sora he
Until the time when it returns, I won't abandon my dreamsItsuka kaeru sono toki made yume wa sutenai

When I close my eyes, the scenery that floats upMabuta tojireba ukabu keshiki ga
Someday, while lost, will return to the hometown of loveMayoi nagara itsuka kaeru ai no furusato
To the sky of the Sarai, with cherry blossom petals falling like snowSakura fubuki no sarai no sora he
Someday it will return, it will return, surely it will returnItsuka kaeru itsuka kaeru kitto kaeru kara
