Kaientai - 故郷未だ忘れ難く - translation of the lyrics into English

Lyrics and translation Kaientai - 故郷未だ忘れ難く




故郷未だ忘れ難く
My Hometown is Still Unforgettable
東へ走る夜汽車の音に
To the east, the sound of the night train
ついつい誘われ 家を出て
Suddenly tempted me to leave home
気付いてみたら 一人ぼっちで
Before I knew it, I was all alone
見知らぬ街にいた
In a strange city
夢のように流れる月日に
In the days that passed like a dream
"追われ追われて半歳すぎ"
"Half a year of chasing and being chased"
街の風にも何とか慣れた
I somehow got used to the city's ways
ひとりすましていたが
And started to feel settled
心の中まで吹き込む風が
But the wind that blew into my heart
思い出の風鈴ゆらします
Rustled the wind chimes of my memories
故郷未だ忘れ難く
My hometown is still unforgettable
酒さえ飲まなきゃやさしい親父
A kind father when he wasn't drinking
故郷未だ忘れ難く
My hometown is still unforgettable
殴られた痛みも忘れました
I've even forgotten the pain of his beatings
雨の降る日にとどいた手紙
A letter came on a rainy day
久し降りのあなたから
The first one from you in a long time
忘れかけた人だからと
I had almost forgotten
なつかしさだけで読み出すと
But started to read out of nostalgia
三年たったら帰って来てね
Come back in three years
インクの文字がにじんでいます
The ink was smudged
故郷未だ忘れ難く
My hometown is still unforgettable
俺のことなど忘れておくれ
Please forget about me
故郷未だ忘れ難く
My hometown is still unforgettable
手紙を抱きしめ 泣きました
I hugged the letter and cried
