Lyrics and translation Fuyumi Sakamoto - Ajisai Sakaba

Ajisai Sakaba

煙草の空箱 鶴に折り
飛ばせば涙があとを追う
おもかげ横丁のとまり木で
今夜も未練とさし向かい
あなたに夢注ぐ あじさい酒場

お酒にまぎらす淋しさを
ゆさぶらないでよ通り雨
想い出一輪 水割りの
グラスに今夜も泳がせて
あなたに泣いてる あじさい酒場

出逢いも別れも 霧雨が
裏窓ながれる 夜でした
想い出かさねたこのドアに
あなたの姿がみえるよで
酔うほどせつない あじさい酒場

Ajisai Sakaba

Empty cigarette boxes folded into cranes;
They fly and tears follow.
At a barstool in Memory Lane,
Tonight, again, I face my regrets.
In the hydrangea bar, I dream of you.

I drown my loneliness in alcohol.
Don't stir it up, passing rain.
A memory, a single blossom,
Swims in my glass of watered-down whiskey tonight.
In the hydrangea bar, I weep for you.

Our encounter and our parting, a misty rain,
Flowed past my back window that night.
In this doorway layered with memories,
I can almost see you.
The hydrangea bar grows sadder as I drink.
