ハトマメ ~Say Hello to The World.~

いろんな国から来た人で
浅草寺は今日も賑やか
仲見世通り抜ければ
晴れ空と香炉の煙
(Oh, it's a beautiful day)

いつもの様に鳩豆を買う
僕の目に飛び込んできた
鳩豆を自分で食べてる
The tourist from somewhere

それは鳩の食べるもの
そう教えてあげたいのに
何も言えなかったあの日
僕は英語を習うと決めた

Those are peas for the birds
But I couldn't say the words
身振り手振りでがんばる僕を
Those are peas for the birds
But I couldn't say the words
楽しそうに見ながらまだ食べていた

うちにホームステイしてる
学生が残した置き手紙
「今日は奈良に友達と
遊びに行ってきます」

お土産ですと照れながら
くれた小さな紙の袋は
確かにうまそうに見える
まるい鹿せんべい

嬉しいけど食べたくない
ひょっとして食べちゃったの？
鹿の絵を描く手を止めて
僕は英語を習うと決めた

Those are crackers for the deer
But I ate them with a tear
だけど優しさがうれしくて
Those are crackers for the deer
But I ate them with a tear
食べたその味は人情の味がした

(Different people from different places
With different skin colors and different faces
With different cultures and different names
But all in all you know all the same
Open your mind, just try, it's not hard
Try to let the words flow from within your heart
No need for hesitation, you know when this vibration,
Fills one big nation there'll be a cerebration)

ごめんねと言いたい時
ありがとうと言いたい時
何も言えなかったあの日
僕は英語を習うと決めた

Those are peas for the birds
Now I can say the words
違う言葉で挨拶したら
Say hello to the words
I can say it to the world
世界中の想いが聞こえてきた

Say hello to the words
I can say it to the world
Say hello to the world
I can say it to the world

Pigeons and Beans ~Say Hello to The World.~

With people coming from many lands,
Senso-ji is bustling again today.
Once you pass through Nakamise Street,
You see the clear sky and the smoke from incense.
(Oh, it's a beautiful day)

I habitually buy pigeons and beans,
My eyes find
A tourist who feeds himself pigeons and beans,
A tourist from somewhere.

Those are something pigeons eat,
I want to tell him so,
I was not able to say anything that day
I made up my mind to study English.

Those are peas for the birds,
But I couldn't say the words.
As I tried to get my gestures right,
Those are peas for the birds,
But I couldn't say the words.
He appeared to be enjoying himself as he continued to eat.

A student staying at my home
Left a note,
"'I'm going to Nara today
To play with my friends".

He gave me this little paper bag
Out of embarrassment, saying it was a souvenir
It does look tasty,
Round deer rice crackers.

I'm happy, but I don't want to eat them,
Did you by any chance eat these?
Stopping his drawing of a deer,
I decided to study English.

Those are crackers for the deer,
But I ate them with a tear.
But his kindness gladdened my heart,
Those are crackers for the deer,
But I ate them with a tear.
The taste was of human kindness.

(Different people from different places,
With different skin colors and different faces,
With different cultures and different names,
But all in all you know all the same.
Open your mind, just try, it's not hard,
Try to let the words flow from within your heart,
No need for hesitation, you know when this vibration,
Fills one big nation there'll be a cerebration.)

When I want to say, "I'm sorry",
And when I want to say, "Thank you",
I was unable to say the words that day
I decided to study English.

Those are peas for the birds,
Now I can say the words.
When we greet each other in different languages,
Say hello to the words,
I can say it to the world.
I can now hear the thoughts of people from all over the world.

Say hello to the words,
I can say it to the world,
Say hello to the world,
I can say it to the world.
