Paroles et traduction Masayoshi Yamazaki - Greeting Melody

Greeting Melody

1971 窓辺の彼女から届いた調べ
長い時が経っても色褪せず鳴り続けてる

巡る季節の中 大事なもの無くしてゆくから
旅の途中の空から君に唄を贈ろう

どれだけ話せばいいのだろう
言葉はままならないけど
今まであった様々な出来事を
そっと君だけに手渡したい

優しい雨のように そよぐ風のように
目覚めた君のもとへ
時間がかかっても 少し遅れても
そこで待っていてほしい

1971 窓辺の彼女から届いた調べ
そして今は大切な君に綴られるメロディー

もし君が悲しみに迷っても
いつもそばにあるように
僕が描くささやかな未来に
その微笑みがずっとあればいい

語りかけるように 手紙を読むように
眠りにつく君に
時間がかかっても 少し遅れても
そこで待っていてほしい

1971 窓辺の彼女から届いた調べ
そして今は大切な君に綴られるメロディー

Greeting Melody

1971 — In July from her by the window, a tune arrived
Though a long time has passed, it still continues to ring without fading

Year after year has come and gone, having us give up precious things
From under the sky mid-journey my song to you shall wing

How much should I tell you?
Words can only go so far
Of the many events we have had until now
Gently, to only you I wish to impart

Like a soothing rain, like a rustling gale
To your awakened self I shall sail
No matter how long it takes, no matter how delayed
I ask that you wait for me there

1971 — In July from her by the window, a tune arrived
And now to my precious you a melody is scribed

If ever sorrow plagues you
As if I were there
In my humble dreams of the future I paint for you
May your smile always remain

Like telling you a whispered tale, like reading from a letter
To you as you slumber
No matter how long it takes, no matter how delayed
I ask that you wait for me there

1971 — In July from her by the window, a tune arrived
And now to my precious you a melody is scribed
