Paroles et traduction Kobukuro - ラブレター

ラブレター

初めて書く手紙だから、ちっともうまくなんて書けないよ。変な文法と、
おかしな言葉のチョイス。笑わないで、、怒らないで、、。誰にも見せない
で、どうか最後まで読んで欲しいんだ。
こういうのきっと、ラブレターって言うんだね。
たった一枚だけ並んで撮った写真、覚えていますか?酷くピントがぼけ
ていたけれど、君が僕の方を向いていて、僕にだけはそう見えていたのに、
近頃になって気付いたんだ、僕のちょうど向こうから君に手を振る大親友
のひとみちゃんの姿に。
君の前の彼氏のプロフィール、もう随分詳しくなったよ。男らしくて
スポーツマン、少し悪びれているけれど、一人っ子で優しくておしゃれで頭
までいいんだよね?僕とはまるで正反対だけど、なんの因果か同じ名前。。
呼び捨てで呼ぶ度に、嫉妬したり、ドキドキしたり、いつも変な気持ち
でいました。話し出すと止まらなくなるところを見ると、今でもまだ好き
なのかな?
変な事言ってゴメンね、、。
君の中に居る人も、今日までの想い出も、その全部が君自身なのだから、
どうか忘れないで、いつまでもいつまでも大切にしてほしい。そしてまた
聴かせてほしい。今までのように。そんな想い出ごと、そんな君ごと好き
です。ずっとずっと前から。理由なんか書き出せば終わらなくなる。沢山
沢山あるけれど、本当は一つ。
今度会った時にちゃんと言いたいな。だけど、返事次第では、もう会えない
かもしれないね。いいんだ。電話でもなんでもいい。ずっと待ってるよ。
最後に一つだけ。この手紙、読んだらすぐに捨ててね。
長くなってごめんね。それじゃ、バイバイ。
結局出せなかった 君へのラブレター
机の奥でずっと 眠ってた
君に読んで聴かせたら 洗濯しながら笑ってる
君と過ごすこの毎日を 記した歌が
今は僕からの ラブレター

Love Letter

It's the first time I've ever written a letter, so it won't be well-written at all. It has strange grammar,
and the choice of words is odd. Don't laugh, don't get mad, don't show it to anyone,
and please read it to the end.
I believe this sort of thing is called a love letter.
Do you remember the photo we took together? It was terribly out of focus,
but you were looking at me. Only I could see it that way, but recently I realized
it was my close friend Hitomi waving at you from behind me.
I've learned so much about your ex-boyfriend's profile. He's manly and
sporty, a little mischievous, but an only child, kind, stylish, and intelligent, right?
He's the complete opposite of me, but by some strange coincidence, we have the same name.
Every time I hear you call out his name, I feel jealous, my heart races, and I always
get this strange feeling. From the way you talk about him, I get the feeling you still
might like him.
Sorry for saying strange things.
The person who's in your heart, the memories you've made until today, all of that is
part of you, so please don't forget them, and always, always treasure them. And please
let me hear them again, like before. Along with those memories, I love all of you.
I've loved you for a long, long time. If I started to list the reasons, it would never
end. There are so many of them, but really there's just one.
I want to say it properly when we meet again. But depending on your answer, we might
not be able to meet again. That's okay. You can call me, or whatever. I'll be
waiting forever. Just one last thing. Please throw away this letter as soon as you've
read it.
Sorry for making it so long. Well then, bye.
The love letter I never sent to you
Lay dormant in the depths of my desk
If I were to read it aloud, you'd laugh while doing laundry
The song I wrote about our daily life
Is now a love letter from me
