Текст и перевод песни Ayumi Hamasaki - FRIEND

FRIEND

心から笑えて満たされる時には
自分の幸せに気付くことできてなかったよ
もう戻ることはできない あの夏なつかしくなっても
細くてでも強いその手 離したの私だから

大切なひとだから気付かなくて
見失いそうになるけれど
くり返しくり返し言い聞かせるよ
「この世界に君はひとりしかいない」

季節の変わり目を告げる風が吹いて
君を少し遠く感じる自分におびえたよ
ふたりまだ一緒にいた頃 真剣に恋して泣いたね
今よりキズつきやすくて でもきっと輝いてた

信じられそうなものみつかったら
必ず手を伸ばしてみよう
くり返しくり返し言い聞かせるよ
「離れてても胸の奥で友達だよ」

晴れた日は青空を見上げながら
雨の日は水たまりけって
くり返しくり返し知っていくよ
生まれた理由生きる意味を

切なさに負けそうで苦しい日も
夜に逃げ込みたくなっても
くり返しくり返し 君との日々
思い出して支えにして

FRIEND

When my heart was filled with laughter, I was so absorbed that I couldn't perceive
my own happiness.
I can't go back. Even if I miss that summer,
I was the one who let go of that strong hand.

Because you were so special to me, I didn't notice,
but I almost lost you.
Over and over again, I remind myself,
You're the only one in this world.

The wind told me the seasons were changing,
and I was scared that you were drifting away.
We were still together when you were serious
about loving me with tears in your eyes.

If I can find something to believe in,
I'm sure I'll reach out.
Over and over again, I remind myself,
Even if we're apart, we'll always be friends.

On sunny days, I look up at the sky,
and on rainy days, I kick up puddles.
Over and over again, I'll search,
for the reason I was born, the meaning of my life.

On days when I'm overcome with sadness,
and I feel like hiding in the night,
over and over again, I'll remember our days together,
and draw strength from them.
