Текст и перевод песни WagakkiBand - Kyosyu no Sora

Kyosyu no Sora

道端に芽吹く新緑が
葉を閉じて訪る夕暮れ
一つ二つ灯、燈り
薪の燃える薫りがした
この町に別れを告げた
あの日からどれだけ過ぎたろう
"少しだけど顔を上げて"
歩いてみる暗い道を
いつも何処かでつかえていて
何かを怖れていて
そうね胸の奥で呼んだ故郷を
皆、迷いの中で光を探し歩き疲れて
不意に全てが嫌になってしまい立ち止まる
そして帰る場所を求めるのだと誰かが言った
そんな気がして見上げるのは都会の夜空
静けさの中で佇んだ
思い出す沢山の日々も
今になって振り返れば
欠かすことの出来ない過去
二度と帰らないと誓った
あの日からどれだけ過ぎたろう
いつの間にか歳をとって
零れ落ちた
「ごめんなさい」
いつも遠くで聴こえていた
日暮れの鐘の音だ
やっと口に出して言えた
「ありがとう」
皆、迷いの中で光を探し歩き疲れて
不意に全てが嫌になってしまい立ち止まる
そして帰る場所を求めるのだと誰かが言った
そんな気がして見上げる空の彼方
"きっと明日は来る"と、
"未来は在る"と信じてみよう
例え小さな歩幅でさえ確実に進む
そしていつの日にか胸を張って
誰かの為に両手広げて迎えるのさ
「おかえりなさい」

Kyoshu no Sora

The new growth budding on the roadside
The leaves close and the evening twilight approaches
One by one, the lights come on
The scent of burning firewood wafts
I bid farewell to this town
How many years have passed since that day?
"Look up and smile, my love"
Let's walk down this dark path
I'm always tripping over something
I'm afraid of something
Yes, my hometown, I called out from the depths of my heart
We all search for the light in the darkness, walking and growing weary
Suddenly, I become disgusted with everything and stand still
And someone said that we seek a place to return to
With that in mind, I gaze up at the night sky of the city
Standing still in the quiet
I remember so many days
Now, looking back
It's a past that I can't leave behind
I swore that I would never return
How many years have passed since that day?
Before I knew it, I had grown old
And they fell
“I'm sorry.”
I could always hear it in the distance
The sound of the evening bell
Finally, I was able to say it out loud
“Thank you.”
We all search for the light in the darkness, walking and growing weary
Suddenly, I become disgusted with everything and stand still
And someone said that we seek a place to return to
With that in mind, I gaze up at the distant sky
"Tomorrow will surely come,"
"Let's believe that the future exists.
Even if it's a small step, keep moving forward with certainty.
And someday, with pride in our hearts
We will welcome someone with open arms.
“Welcome home.”
