Nakashima Mika - Sakura Iro Mau Koro [trans]

This song never fails to make me feel like crying. It's a gorgeous song that I adore. I hope when I sing it, I do it justice.

中島美香–桜色舞うころ
桜色舞うころ, 私はひとり
Sakurairo maukoro, watashi wa hitori
押さえきれぬ胸に 立ち尽くしてた
Osae kirenu mune ni tachitsuku shiteta

若葉色 萌ゆれば 想いあふれて
Wakabairo moyureba omoi afurete
すべてを見失い あなたへ流れた
Subete wo miushinai anata e nagareta

めぐる木々たちだけが ふたりを見ていたの
Meguru kigitachi dake ga Futari wo miteita no
ひとどころには とどまれないと そっと おしえながら
Hito dokoro ni wa todomare nai to Sotto oshienagara

枯葉色 染めてく あなたのとなり
Karehairo someteku anata no tonari
移るいゆく日々が 愛へと変るの
Utsurui yuku hibi ga ai e to kawaru no

どうか木々たちだけは この想いを守って
Douka kigitachi dake wa Kono omoi wo mamotte
もう一度だけ ふたりの上で そっと 葉を揺らして
Mou ichido dake futari no ue de Sotto ha wo yurashite

やがて季節はふたりを どこへ運んでゆくの
Yagate toki wa futari wo Doko e yakonde yuku no
ただひとつだけ 確かな今を そっと 抱きしめていた
Tada hitotsu dake tashikana ima wo Sotto dakishimeteita

雪化粧 まどえは 想いはぐれて
Yuki keshou madoe wa omoi hagurete
足跡も消してく 音無きいたずら
Ashiato mo keshiteku otonaki itazura

どうか木々たちだけは この想いを守って
Douka kigi tachi dake wa Kono omoi wo mamotte
「永遠」の中ふたりとどめて ここに 生き続けて
“Eien” no naka futari todomete Koko ni iki tsuzukete

めぐる木々たちだけが ふたりを見ていたの
Meguru kigi tachi dake ga Futari wo miteita no
ひとどころには とどまれないと そっと おしえながら
Hito dokoro ni wa todomare nai to Sotto oshienagara

桜色舞うころ, 私はひとり
Sakurairo maukoro, watashi wa hitori
あなたへの想いを かみしめたまま
Anata e no omoi wo kamishimeta mama

Mika Nakashima – Sakura Iro Mau Koro – The Color of Cherry Blossoms Dance About
The color of cherry blossoms dance about and I am alone
This chest which stands against an unbearable weight stays still

If the colors of fresh, new leaves begin to sprout and bloom, my thoughts overflow
I’ve lost sight of everything, washed away with (thoughts of) you

Only the surrounding trees
The ones that we saw together
To cease being alone, by myself
While quietly teaching me

The color of dried leaves are dyed; Beside you
Slowly changing day after day, my love for you changing

Somehow only these trees are
Protecting these memories
Just one more time, back to where we used to be
Gently shaking the leaves

Before long we will be together
Where are we moving towards?
There’s only one thing and certainly, right now
You are gently embracing me

The window covered in snow, lost in memories
My footprints are also gone, a silent trick

Somehow only these trees are
Protecting these memories
Caught together in “Eternity”
Continuing to live in here

Only the surrounding trees
The ones that we saw together
To cease being alone, by myself
While quietly teaching me

The color of cherry blossoms dance about and I am alone
I continue to reflect upon my memories of you
