Paroles et traduction Chitose Hajime - Hotaruboshi

Hotaruboshi

傾いた影の向こう 夕映えに赤く染まる笑顔
夏の陽で枯れた心 そっと潤していく

"ただいま"と"おかえり"が 今日もまた優しく手をつなぐ
出迎えるヒグラシは言う 帰還(かえ)る場所は、ここ

誇れること 何もないけど
目に映るのは 失くしたくないもの

手を広げたら 欲張るだけで
いらないものまでも掴む
両手ですくう それくらいでいい
小さく光るもの 逃がさずに 落とさずに
蛍星

見上げれば宵の空 肩を寄せ温もりが瞬く
耳すませば聴こえてくる 懐かしい歌声

例え淡く 眩しくはなくとも
確かに強く生命を照らしている

数え切れない 満天の明かり
見えない所からも降る
君との距離がはるか何光年
離れていたとしても 手のひらの 上にほら
蛍星

手を広げたら 欲張るだけで
いらないものまでも掴む
両手ですくう それくらいでいい
小さく光るもの

数え切れない 満天の明かり
今日も誰かがまた灯す
明日もここに 帰還(かえ)れるようにと
小さく光るもの 壊さずに 抱えていく
蛍星

Hotaruboshi

In the shadows of the setting sun, your smile glows as the sky turns red
The parched heart of summer is slowly being refreshed

The words "Welcome home" and "I'm back" gently intertwine once more today
The evening cicadas call out as you approach, this is the place that you return

There's nothing that I'm proud of
But what my eyes behold are the things I don't want to lose

If I open my hands, I'll only become greedy
And grasp at things I don't even need
I'll scoop it up with both hands, that's just about right
Those small glimmering things, I won't miss, I won't drop them
Fireflies

As I look up at the evening sky, we huddle together and our warmth flickers
And when I listen closely, I can hear a懐かしい nostalgic song

Even if it's faint and not dazzling,
It's definitely strong and its light is illuminating life

Countless lights, a night full of stars
Even from unseen places, they fall
The distance between us, separated by light-years
Even if we're apart, look, there it is in the palm of my hand
Fireflies

If I open my hands, I'll only become greedy
And grasp at things I don't even need
I'll scoop it up with both hands, that's just about right
Those small glimmering things

Countless lights, a night full of stars
Today, someone else lit a light
So that I can return here tomorrow
Those small glimmering things, I won't break them, I'll hold on to them tightly
Fireflies
