Lyrics and translation D-51 - Forever Friends

Forever Friends

Forever friend 踏み出すことを恐れないで
「旅立ち」それを共に祝おう これからも心にLove＆Soul
Forever friend 変わることを恐れないで
「再会」そしてこの街がほら いつだって僕らを待ってるから

肩を並べ カバン背負って 3度目の春を迎えた
通い慣れた この近道 別れを惜しんで歩くよ
いつもよりも ちゃんと着けた 制服に君が笑う
でも気付いた その笑顔に 隠れた寂しさ
ずっと忘れないよ きっとまた会えるよ

桜咲くあの丘の上 いつかまた巡り会える日まで
遠い夏あの海の色 どこまでも青く広がってた
黄昏にただぼんやりと 冬の足音に耳澄ました
僕たちは 今日という日を知りながら 永遠を感じた

Forever friend 踏み出すことを恐れないで
「旅立ち」それを共に祝おう これからも心にLove＆Soul
Forever friend 変わることを恐れないで
「再会」そしてこの街がほら いつだって僕らを待ってるから

わかってるよ 君は強く 誰にも負けない人だって
弱音吐かず 心配など 必要ないって言うんだろう?
だけどいつか 嘘に塗れ 自分を見失った時は
どこにいても 迷いもなく この手を貸しに行くから

春風に流れる雲を 授業を抜け出し眺めていた

照りつける太陽の下 自転車で砂浜を目指した
失恋の痛みを知って 夜が明けるまで語り合ってた
僕たちは今日という日を 知りながら永遠を感じた

Forever friend 一人で立ち止まらないで
「絆」それを共に信じよう いつでも心にONE for ALL
Forever friend 冷たい風に負けないで
「未来」胸に僕たちはほら 同じ時代を歩いてるから

振り返れば数々の失敗 真っ直ぐだけにぶつかること何回
あの時の君の言葉覚えてるかい? 心配げな顔で「大丈夫かい」
支えてくれた わかってくれた 不器用なまま受け止めてくれた
出会った頃覚えてるかい? 友情なんて苦手なはずなのに
共に歩んできたね春夏秋冬 涙も笑いも分かち合ってきた
離れ離れになっても そうさ一人じゃないだろう
目を閉じて 心で叫ぶのさ

Forever friend 踏み出すことを恐れないで
「旅立ち」それを共に祝おう これからも心にLove＆Soul
Forever friend 変わることを恐れないで
「再会」そしてこの街がほら いつだって僕らを待ってるから

Forever friend その涙をこらえないで
流れてそれがやがて光る 君だけの宝石なんだから
Forever friend 永遠なる友に歌うよ
夢を掴みいつかまた会う その時互いに笑って会おう

Forever Friends

My everlasting friend, do not be afraid to take that step
Let us celebrate that "departure" together, forever with love and soul in our hearts
My everlasting friend, do not be afraid of change
This city will always be waiting for us, for our "reunion"

Shoulder to shoulder, backpacks on our backs, we have welcomed the spring for the third time
Walking along this familiar shortcut, cherishing our farewell
More carefully than usual, you put on your school uniform, and it makes you smile
But I notice that hidden sadness behind your smile
I will never forget it; surely we will see each other again

Until the day we meet again on that hill where the cherry blossoms bloom
That distant summer, the color of the sea, spread out endless blue
In the twilight, just in a daze, we listened to the footfall of winter
We, knowing the day that is today, felt eternity

My everlasting friend, do not be afraid to take that step
Let us celebrate that "departure" together, forever with love and soul in our hearts
My everlasting friend, do not be afraid to change
This city will always be waiting for us, for our "reunion"

I know you are strong, someone who will never give up
You will not show any weakness and say that you don't need to worry, right?
But if one day, you get lost in lies and lose yourself
No matter where you are, without hesitation, I will lend you this hand

Skipping class to gaze at the clouds drifting in the spring wind

We rode our bikes to the sandy beach under the scorching sun
We shared our pain from heartbreak and talked until dawn
We, knowing the day that is today, felt eternity

My everlasting friend, do not stand alone
Let us believe in our "bond" together, always keeping ONE for ALL in our hearts
My everlasting friend, do not lose to the cold wind
In our hearts, our "future," together we walk the same time

Looking back on countless failures, how many times have we collided head-on
Do you remember your words from that time? With a worried face, "Are you okay?"
You supported me, understood me, accepted me, clumsy as I was
Do you remember the day we met? You were not supposed to be good at making friends
We walked together through spring, summer, autumn, and winter, sharing tears and laughter
Even if we are far apart, know that you are not alone
I close my eyes and scream in my heart

My everlasting friend, do not be afraid to take that step
Let us celebrate that "departure" together, forever with love and soul in our hearts
My everlasting friend, do not be afraid to change
This city will always be waiting for us, for our "reunion"

My everlasting friend, do not hold back those tears
Let them flow, and they will eventually shine, becoming your own precious gems
My everlasting friend, I sing to you, my eternal friend
May you hold on to your dreams and one day we will meet again, and at that time we will smile at each other
