Paroles et traduction Hachidai Nakamura - 宵待草

宵待草

長い黒髪 優しく触れて
ひと夜の夢を くれた人
叶わぬ恋と あきらめて

涙で 涙で 手酌酒
女の意地を 守ってきたけれど
ああ 崩れてしまいそう
雨に濡れてる 宵待草

愛を探して 訪ねて来たの
虚(うつ)ろう心 抱きしめて
川面に浮かんだ 朧(おぼろ)月
涙で 涙で 揺れている
女の胸に 想い出置いたまま
ああ 残していかないで
夜に迷い散る 宵待草

つのる想いを 心に秘めて
明日を信じた みれん花
交わしたお酒に 酔いながら
涙を 涙を 流したい
女の幸せ その手で暖めて
ああ 咲かせて欲しいのよ
春を待つ身の 宵待草

Chinese Bellflower

Touching her gentle long black hair,
She gave me a dream for one night,
But I gave up on the unrequited love,

And I sipped sake with tears,
I had kept my feminine pride,
But oh, it seems to be crumbling,
Just like the Chinese bellflower in the rain.

Looking for love, I came seeking,
Embracing a heartbroken soul,
Just like the hazy moon on the river,
I was shaken in tears.
Tears in my heart, I kept my memories to myself,
Oh, don't leave me behind,
Chinese bellflower getting lost and scattered in the night.

Treasuring growing love in my heart,
I depended on the flower of longing for tomorrow,
I got drunk with the sake we shared,
And I wanted to cry.
Warm my feminine happiness with your hands,
Oh, please let me bloom.
Chinese bellflower waiting for spring.
