Okuru Kotoba

暮れなずむ町の 光と影の中
去りゆくあなたへ
贈る言葉
悲しみこらえて 微笑むよりも
涙かれるまで 泣くほうがいい
人は悲しみが 多いほど
人には優しく できるのだから
さよならだけでは
さびしすぎるから
愛するあなたへ
贈る言葉
夕暮れの風に 途切れたけれど
終わりまで聞いて
贈る言葉
信じられぬと 嘆くよりも
人を信じて 傷つくほうがいい
求めないで 優しさなんか
臆病者の 言いわけだから
はじめて愛した
あなたのために
飾りもつけずに
贈る言葉
これから始まる 暮らしの中で
だれかがあなたを 愛するでしょう
だけど 私ほど あなたの事を
深く愛した ヤツはいない
遠ざかる影が
人混みに消えた
もうとどかない
贈る言葉
もうとどかない
贈る言葉

Okuru Kotoba

Amidst the light and shadows of the darkening town,
To you who are leaving
I dedicate these words.
Rather than stifling your sadness and forcing a smile,
It is better to cry until your tears run dry.
For it is through suffering that
we learn to treat others with kindness.
"Goodbye" alone is
too lonely,
So to you, my love,
I dedicate these words.
Though the evening breeze has severed our connection,
Please listen to these words
that I dedicate to you.
Rather than lamenting the unfathomable,
It is better to trust and be hurt.
Do not seek kindness,
For it is the coward's excuse.
It is for you, my first love,
That I shed these tears without vanity.
I dedicate these words to you.
As you embark on your new life,
Someone will love you,
But none as deeply as I.
Your retreating figure
Fades into the crowd,
And my words,
Can reach you no more.
I dedicate these words
That can reach you no more.
I dedicate these words
That can reach you no more.
