Текст и перевод песни YUKI - さようなら、おかえり

さようなら、おかえり

今は昔 少年がいました
ひねもす野原 駆け回って虫を採る
遊んだ帰り道は 宵待草の匂いがします
転んでもまた起き上がる 未熟なれど男です
薫るる風と逃げ水 短い髪を清らかに撫でる
追いかけたけれど 紅の夕日に消える
また会えるかな
さようなら、おかえり
時は流れ 少年は大人に成る
本当や嘘 優しさの意味を知る
しわしわの掌を離れてひとり旅に出ます
自分で選ぶ分かれ道 見せておくれ心意気
夕立ち雲と約束 泣きたい時に交わす合言葉
思い出せなくて 潮騒の詩に尋ねる
小さな僕の姿は見えない
かおるるかぜとにげみず
みじかいかみをきよらかになでる
おいかけたけれど
くれないのゆうひにきえる
またあえるかな
さようなら、おかえり

My Dear, Goodbye and Welcome Home

We used to be little boys
Who used to run around the fields all day and catch bugs
When we went back home, we could smell the evening primrose
We fell down but got back up again. We were immature but we were men
The fragrant wind and the short-lived mirage would gently caress our short hair
We chased after them, but as fast as we ran, they faded away into the red sunset
I wonder if we'll ever meet again
Goodbye, my dear; welcome back
Time passed and the little boys grew up
They learned the meaning of truth, lies, and kindness
They left their wrinkled palms behind and set off on their own journeys
Show me your determination as you choose your own path
A promise made with the evening shower clouds; a password to use when you want to cry
When memories fade, we can turn to the poetry of the ocean waves
I can't see my little boy in you anymore
The fragrant wind and the short-lived mirage
Would gently caress your short hair
We chased after them, but as fast as we ran
They faded away into the red sunset
I wonder if we'll ever meet again
Goodbye, my dear; welcome back
