Lyrics and translation Shinji Tanimura - 残照




残照
Fading Sun
足早に暮れてゆく 秋の夕陽のいさぎよさ
The autumn sunset is quick to set, but it is refreshing.
久しぶりに散歩する父と二人の遠回り
For the first time in a while, I take a detour walk with my father and me.
はるか昔にこの人の背中で聞いた祭りばやし
Long ago, I heard the sound of a festival behind this man's back.
遠く聞こえて道の向うに目をやれば
Listening in the distance; I look around.
影を落として小さなカラスが空を行く
A small black crow flies through the sky, casting a shadow.
"人生は祭りのよう"何気なく貴方は言った
"Life is like a festival," you said without hesitation.
その後の淋しさにたえる勇気が出來ました
It gave me the courage to endure that loneliness that came later.
殘り少ない祭りの夜は
The remaining nights of the festival
せめて一緒にそばに坐って
I just want to sit next to you.
酒でも飲んで同じ話を繰り返し
Let's drink some sake and talk about the same things over and over again.
胸のページに書き寫してすごしていよう
Let's write it on the pages of our hearts and spend our time like this.
哀しくて哀しくて 體全部が哀しくて
Sadness, sadness; my entire body is filled with sadness,
目頭が熱くなり思わず貴方を追いこした
My eyes become hot and I end up running after you.
見えていますかこれが貴方の 見えていますかこれが貴方の
Can you see this? This is you; can you see this? This is you.
夢を削った 夢をこわした背中です
This is the back that has hurt and destroyed your dream.
震えているのはきっときっと...
What is trembling is probably...
震えているのはきっときっと...
What is trembling is probably...
