Lyrics and translation Hiroshi Itsuki - 愛の始発

愛の始発

川は流れる橋の下
まるで二人の恋の世に
川は流れる橋の下
この街に今さら
未練なんかは無いのです
悲しみを小さな
ボストンバッグに詰め込んで
明日の始発に飛び乗るのです
二人で遠くの街にゆくのです
水の流れと同じよに
どこっとゆう当てもないのです
川は流れる橋の下

街は日暮れる鐘はなる
木の葉浮かべて寂しげに
川は流れる橋の下
お互いに一番
大事な人て知りました
この愛を一生を
守って行こうと決めました
あなたは仕事と友達を捨て
私は長年住んだ家を捨て
水に浮かんだわくわ葉の
夢だけ頼りにゆくのです
川は流れる橋の下
命をかけても悔いない恋に
出逢った二人は幸せなのです
言葉少なく肩寄せて
黄昏の中を歩きます
川は流れる橋の下

The First Train of Love

The river flows under the bridge,
Like the course of our love in this world.
The river flows under the bridge,
In this city, right now,
I have no regrets.
I've packed my sadness in a small
Boston bag,
And I'll catch the first train tomorrow.
Together, we'll go to a distant city.
Like the flow of water,
We have no destination.
The river flows under the bridge.

The city grows dim as the bells toll,
Leaves floating on the water, lonely.
The river flows under the bridge,
We have realized that we are
The most important people to each other.
This love, for a lifetime,
We have decided to protect it.
You gave up your job and your friends,
And I gave up the home I've lived in for years.
Like withered leaves floating on the water,
We rely only on our dreams.
The river flows under the bridge.
A love we found, worth risking our lives for,
The two of us who met are happy.
With few words, we walk together,
Shoulders close, through the twilight.
The river flows under the bridge.
