Paroles et traduction 和田アキ子 - Mother

Mother

悲しいことがあるたびに
あなたの顔が目に浮かぶ
いつでも そっと 手を広げ
「ここにおいで」と
迎えてくれる

生まれた街に 背を向けて
自分の道を歩いてる
どこかに帰る鳥たちに
私は遠いあなたを想う

Mother
時は過ぎても
Mother
何も変わらず
Mother
私はあなたの娘
子守唄を聞かせて
どうにか1人 生きて来れた
そこに あなたがいたから

やさしく髪をなでながら
私のためのぬくもりを
悲しい夜の地図にして
頑張る勇気を
あなたがくれる

Mother
誰の胸にも
Mother
きっといるはず
Mother
心配ばかりかけてる
私だけを見ていて
離れていても わかり合える
それがあなたのララバイ

Mother
時は過ぎても
Mother
何も変わらず
Mother
私はあなたの娘
子守唄を聞かせて

どうにか1人 生きて来れた
そこにあなたがいたから
そこにあなたがいたから

Mother

Every time something sad happens,
Your face comes to my mind,
Always gently extending your arms to me,
Saying, "Come here,"
Welcoming me.

Turning my back on my hometown,
I walk my own path.
The birds that return somewhere,
I think of you, who are far away.

Mother,
Even as time passes by,
Mother,
Nothing has changed.
Mother,
I am your daughter.
Sing me a lullaby.
Somehow, I managed to live on my own
Because you were there.

Gently stroking my hair,
The warmth you gave me.
Turning it into a map of sad nights,
The courage to persevere,
You give it to me.

Mother,
Everyone has one too,
Mother,
I'm sure.
Mother,
All I do is worry you,
Just keep your eyes on me.
Even if we're apart, we understand each other.
That's your lullaby.

Mother,
Even as time passes by,
Mother,
Nothing has changed.
Mother,
I am your daughter.
Sing me a lullaby.

Somehow, I managed to live on my own
Because you were there.
Because you were there.
