Текст и перевод песни 小椋佳 - 愛の足跡

愛の足跡

今、歩き慣れた街を離れて
只、騒ぐ心ひとつ抱きながら
初めての場所を訪ねて彷徨う
旅、何の為と人が問うなら
夢、背中を押すからと答えよう
生きて在ることを感じたいからと
どんな道もその初めは道のない大地
荒野原野歴史刻む名もなき人の
挑みの足跡
風、物語りを熱く語れば
ほら、ここに生きた人が浮かび立つ
初めての道に懐かしさ湧く
訪ね終えた胸の奥に響く声がある
道を拓き道を創るそんな人になれ
どんな道もその初めは道のない大地
荒野原野歴史刻む名もなき人の
挑みの足跡

Footprints of Love

Now, leaving behind the familiar city streets,
Embracing only a restless heart,
I wander, visiting unknown places for the first time.
If someone asks me why I travel,
I will answer that my dreams push me forward,
Because I long to feel alive.
Every path, in its beginning, is an untrodden wilderness,
Where the nameless ones of history have left their mark on the untamed land,
Their footsteps a testament to their challenges.
When the wind whispers its tales,
I see the people who once lived here come to life before my eyes.
A sense of nostalgia fills me on unfamiliar roads.
Deep in my heart, a voice echoes after my journey's end,
"Become one who carves and creates paths for others to follow."
Every path, in its beginning, is an untrodden wilderness,
Where the nameless ones of history have left their mark on the untamed land,
Their footsteps a testament to their challenges.
