memories

夢咲き風舞う春の空 太陽が微笑んでいる
あなたは覚えているかしら ほら あの日のこと
誰もいない海辺でふたり 光る波見つめながら
静かに語り合った夢は ただ ひとつだった
小さな貝殻の中にも海がある
心澄ませば聞こえる音
春が来るたび 瞳の奥に あの日の海を思い出す
ささやかでいい 誇らしくあれ 麗(うら)らかな風のように
あれから季節は流れゆき 夢叶い夢は破れ
大切な人が旅立って 涙星ひとつ
あの日の少女は母になり 少年は父になった
幼い背中もいつの日か 巣立ってゆくのでしょう
小さな幸せを大切に育めば
大きな絆を繋いでくれる
一雨ごとに 大地は歌う 明日への希望を讃えて
悩める時も 迷える時も 星空は雲の上に
春が来るたび 瞳の奥に あの日の海を思い出す
ささやかでいい 誇らしくあれ 麗(うら)らかな風のように
花びら舞い散る桜道 愛おしき遠い日々よ
またこの胸に帰ってきて 春風とともに

memories

In the spring sky where dreams bloom and the wind dances, the sun smiles
Do you remember, my love, that day?
On a secluded beach, just the two of us, we gazed at the shimmering waves
Softly, we shared our dreams, which were but one
Even within a tiny seashell, there lies an ocean
If we listen with open hearts, we can hear the sound of the sea
With each returning spring, the depths of my eyes recall that day by the sea
Let us cherish the soft whisper, the gentle caress of a fragrant breeze
Since then, the seasons have come and gone, dreams have been realized and shattered
Precious souls have embarked on their journeys, leaving behind a trail of tears
The young girl of that day has become a mother, the boy a father
Their little backs, too, will one day take flight and soar
If we nurture each small joy with care
It will forge an unbreakable bond between us
With every shower, the earth sings, praising the promise of tomorrow
In times of doubt and confusion, the stars shine above the clouds
With each returning spring, the depths of my eyes recall that day by the sea
Let us cherish the soft whisper, the gentle caress of a fragrant breeze
Beneath the falling petals of cherry blossoms, I cherish the memories of our distant past
May they forever return to my heart, carried by the spring breeze
