Текст и перевод песни Akihisa Kondo - 3度目の告白

3度目の告白

溢れて「言葉になりたい想い」を今
君に伝えていいですか?
遠回りしても最後まで聞いてほしい
肝心な言葉。君が
「好き」
どうしようもないこと。
どうにかしたいことも。
君がくれるから
不可能なことも強く願えば叶う
気がしてくるんだな。
愛の姿って見えたんだね
君にも僕が見えたらいいな
「守りたい」と想うことで
強くなれる僕は
知らず知らず君に「守られていた」
嬉しいとか悲しいとか
きっと2人なら
結局どちらも幸せになる「魔法」
君を家まで送る道の途中に回り道をして
「少しでも一緒に居たい」僕にとって近道こそ遠回り
愛の姿って見えたんだね
君にも僕が見えたらいいな
「愛されたい」見返りとか求めてしまうのは
下手くそな「愛情」そんな形
「君」と「君を想う僕」と「僕ら」
それぞれを愛せたこの気持ち
ちゃんと伝えなきゃな
「守りたい」と想うことで
強くなれる僕は
知らず知らず君に「守られていた」
嬉しいとか悲しいとか
きっと2人なら
結局どちらも幸せになる
今日だって伝えたい言葉があって
いつも上手く言えやしないけど
最後まで聞いて欲しい言葉。君が
「好き」

Confession for the Third Time

My feelings that surge forth and want to "become words," may I
tell them to you?
Even if it takes a long time, I want you to hear them to the end.
The most important words. You're
"my love."
It's something I can't help.
Something I want to do something about.
It's the gift you give me,
that makes even the impossible seem possible, if you wish it strong enough.
And you make me feel like I can see it.
I wish you could see me, too.
By "wanting to protect,"
I grow stronger. I feel like I'm being
silently "protected" by you.
Happy or sad,
I believe that together,
both of those feelings become a "magic spell" that brings
ultimate happiness.
On our way back home, I take the long way,
because "I want to stay with you just a little longer." For me, taking a shortcut would be the long way around.
I wish you could see me, too.
I want to be loved. I want something in return. I keep asking for that,
but it's a "love" that is awkward for me to show. I love you,
and I love the person who loves me. That is how I love you.
This feeling of loving you and the real me, and our love together,
I suddenly need to express.
By "wanting to protect,"
I grow stronger. I feel like I'm being
silently "protected" by you.
Happy or sad,
I believe that together,
both of those feelings become
ultimate happiness.
Today, too, I want to find the words to tell you.
As always, I won't be able to express it well,
but the words you want to hear to the end. You're
"my love.
