Paroles et traduction Akiko Wada - Mother

Mother

悲しいことがあるたびに
あなたの顔が目に浮かぶ
いつでも そっと 手を広げ
「ここにおいで」と
迎えてくれる

生まれた街に 背を向けて
自分の道を歩いてる
どこかに帰る鳥たちに
私は遠いあなたを想う

Mother
時は過ぎても
Mother
何も変わらず
Mother
私はあなたの娘
子守唄を聞かせて
どうにか1人 生きて来れた
そこに あなたがいたから

やさしく髪をなでながら
私のためのぬくもりを
悲しい夜の地図にして
頑張る勇気を
あなたがくれる

Mother
誰の胸にも
Mother
きっといるはず
Mother
心配ばかりかけてる
私だけを見ていて
離れていても わかり合える
それがあなたのララバイ

Mother
時は過ぎても
Mother
何も変わらず
Mother
私はあなたの娘
子守唄を聞かせて

どうにか1人 生きて来れた
そこにあなたがいたから
そこにあなたがいたから

Mother

Whenever something saddens me,
My mind's eye sees your face.
Always, silently, you open your arms
And say, "Come here,"
And welcome me.

I turned my back on the town where I was born
And walked my own path.
The birds that return somewhere
Make me think of you, far away.

Mother,
Even as time passes
Mother,
You're always the same
Mother,
I am your daughter.
Sing me a lullaby.
Somehow, I've managed to live alone
Because you were there.

Gently stroking my hair,
You gave me warmth for myself,
A map for the sad nights
And the courage to keep going
That you gave me.

Mother,
In everyone's heart,
Mother,
Surely there is one
Mother,
I always worry you,
But you only care about me,
Even if we're apart, we understand each other.
That's your lullaby.

Mother,
Even as time passes
Mother,
You're always the same
Mother,
I am your daughter.
Sing me a lullaby.

Somehow, I've managed to live alone
Because you were there.
Because you were there.
