Lyrics and translation AYAKA - サクラ

サクラ

胸が痛むほどの
勇気と向き合った日々
震える弱い背中を
支えてくれたキミ
青春を彩る
甘くほろ苦い道
卒業はなぜ
どこまでも切ない
友の声 遠ざかりゆく
ヒラヒラと舞い散る桜に
手を伸ばすよ
いまも心に残る
春の想い出たち
元気にしてるかな？
日々の中で手を止める
シワが増えたいまも
桜を見る度に
全てを捧げ
また春を迎えて
我が子の手 遠ざかりゆく
ヒラヒラと舞い散る桜に
手を伸ばすよ
その一瞬が儚くて愛しい
移りゆく季節の花は
会いたの
咲き誇る姿に 身を焦がすよ
卒業はなぜ
どこまでも切ない
あなたの声 遠ざかりゆく
ヒラヒラと舞い散る桜に
手を伸ばすよ

Sakura

My heart aches with
the courage I faced every day,
my trembling and weak back
was supported by you.
My youth was filled with
sweet and bittersweet paths.
Why is graduation
so endlessly painful?
The voices of my friends fade away.
As the cherry blossoms flutter and fall,
I reach out my hand.
My heart still remembers
the memories of spring.
I wonder if you're doing well.
In the midst of my days, I pause.
Even now, as my wrinkles grow,
each time I see the cherry blossoms,
I devote my all
and welcome the spring again.
The hands of my child fade away.
As the cherry blossoms flutter and fall,
I reach out my hand.
That fleeting moment is ephemeral and precious.
The seasonal flowers change,
I miss you.
I yearn for your radiant form.
Why is graduation
so endlessly painful?
Your voice fades away.
As the cherry blossoms flutter and fall,
I reach out my hand.
