Dear

Atama no naka de kikoeru kimi no koe ga
Ima mo watashi no kokoro wo yusaburu
Kioku no naka de kimi wa itsudemo

Kono kotoba wo kimi ni okuruyo
Kimi no koto zutto

Dear

Inside my head I hear your voice
Even now my heart is trembling
The memory of you inside will stay forever
Smiling kindly

That day as we were on our way home together
Laughing while we held hands
I wanted this moment to continue forever
Your last words were “So far , thank you”
as it continously echoes

I want to meet you, to meet the voice that has no longer resonate
as I call out your name
The sorrow, the pain
because the lonely night is frightening
I look up to the night sky
searching for you

[I'm] still wearing the ring you gave
Because this was the last bond for the two of us
In the far far away world you are in now
Are you wearing the ring that we exchanged?

Someday (someday) I will convey to you my thoughts and feelings
that has been lying present inside my heart for a long time
To make sure this reaches to wherever you are watching over me
I will sing this song

I want to meet you, to meet the voice that has no longer resonate
as I call out your name
The sorrow, the pain
because the lonely night is scary
I look up to the night sky

The great love I experienced over you
I would never forget
Even though my outlook might change inside

As far as I want to be able to say
in these words that I want to send you
I will love you forever.

(In Japanese kana/kanji)

君の知らないものがたり

いつも通りのある日のこと
君は突然立ち上がり言った
「今夜 星を見に行こう」

たまにいいこと言うんだね
なんて 皆して言って笑った
明かりもない道を
馬鹿みたいにはしゃいで歩いた
抱え込んだ孤独や不安に
押し潰されないように

真っ暗な世界から見上げた
夜空は　星が降るようで
いつからだろう 君のことを
追いかける 私がいた
どうかお願い 驚かないで
聞いてよ 私の
この思いを

「あれが、デネブ、アルタイル、ベガ」
君は指差す 夏の大三角
覚えて 空を見る
やっと見つけた 織姫様
だけどどこだろう 彦星様
これじゃ 一人ぼっち

楽しげなひとつ隣の君
私は何も言えなくて
本当はずっと 君のことを
どこかでわかっていた
見つかったって 届きはしない
「だめだよ 泣かないで」
そう言い聞かせた

強がる私は臆病で
興味がないようなフリをしてた

だけど

胸を刺す痛みは増してく
あぁそうか 好きになるって
こういうことなんだね

“どうしたい？
言ってごらん”,

心の声がする
君の隣がいい
真実は残酷だ

言わなかった
言えなかった
二度と戻れない

あの夏の日
煌めく星
今でも
思い出せるよ
笑った顔も
怒った顔も
大好きでした

可笑しいよね
わかってたのに
君の知らない
私だけの秘密
夜を越えて
遠い思い出の君が
指をさす
無邪気な声で

The Story You Do Not Know

On just another usual day,
you suddenly stood up and said,
“Let’s go look at the stars tonight”.

“You have really good ideas sometimes”
exclaimed everyone as they laughed.
On a street without any light,
we walked merrily like fools,
our loneliness and anxiety
are prevented from being crushed.

From a pitch black world I looked up
the night sky seemed as if there were stars falling.
I wonder since when did I
start this adventure of chasing after you.
Please, do not be surprised on
hearing these feelings of mine

“That is Deneb, Altair, and Vega”,
you pointed at the Great Summer Triangle.
I remembered, while looking at the sky,
finally finding Vega
but wondered where is Altair.
This, well, is really loneliness.

The single cheerful you who was beside
there is nothing for me to possibly say.
Honestly, for a long time
I have understood you somewhere and
I have found that it will not get through.
“This’s not good eh, don’t cry”
I should have told you.

Acting brave, I was just a coward
pretending to be uninterested.

But

the pain piercing my chest grows.
Ah, I see. To get to like someone
is somewhat like this.

“What’s the matter?
try saying it”,

the voice of my heart wants to say.
Its pleasant to be beside you
and the reality is harsh.

I didn’t say it,
I couldn’t say it,
never turn back ever again.

On that summer day
the stars were glittering.
Yet now, I still remember
your laughing face,
your angry face.
I did loved them.

It’s strange, isn’t it?
Even though I know
something that you don’t;
my only secret.
Passing through the night,
the distant memory of you
pointing with your finger
in an innocent voice.
