風に揺らいで ひらり舞い散る | kaze ni yuraide hirari maichiru |
君の肩ごしに紅一葉 | kimi no katagoshi ni akahitoha |
ただ寄り添えば わかりあえると | tada yorisoeba wakariaeru to |
悲しみは空に消えるだけ | kanashimi wa sora ni kieru dake |
月明かり照らしてた 遠くの笛の音 御神楽太鼓 | tsukiakari terashiteta tooku no fue no ne o-kagura taiko |
ありふれた幸せは 思えばこんなに素敵でした | arifureta shiawase wa omoeba konna ni suteki deshita |
いつか話そう 出会えた喜び | itsuka hanasou deaeta yorokobi |
淡い愛しさ 知らずにいた | awai itoshisa shirazu ni ita |
風に揺らいで ひらり舞い散る | kaze ni yuraide hirari maichiru |
君の肩ごしに紅一葉 | kimi no katagoshi ni akahitoha |
ただ寄り添えば わかりあえると | tada yorisoeba wakariaeru to |
悲しみは空に消えるだけ | kanashimi wa sora ni kieru dake |
穏やかに迫りくる 季節は朧げ 誘いし火影 | odayaka ni semarikuru kisetsu wa oboroge sasoishi hokage |
躓いて迷いながら 進んでゆくのも悪くないよ | tsumazuite mayoinagara susundeyuku no mo warukunai yo |
今を漂い 願いよ届けと | ima wo tadayoi negai yo todoke to |
絶えた祈りを 重ねるだけ | taeta inori wo kasaneru dake |
忘れられない 思い出がある | wasurerarenai omoide ga aru |
君の肩ごし 桜紅葉 | kimi no katagoshi sakura momiji |
強く儚く 世界を埋めて この愛を 永久に捧ぐ | tsuyoku hakanaku sekai wo umete kono ai wo towa ni sasagu |
風に揺れて ひらり舞い散れ | kaze ni yurete hirari maichire |
今宵闇夜を 紅く染めて | koyoi yamiyo wo akaku somete |
ただ寄り添って 抱かれていたい | tada yorisotte dakareteitai |
悲しみが 空に消えるまで | kanashimi ga sora ni kieru made |
Swaying in the wind, fluttering down
Over your shoulder I see a single red leaf
Just come close and we'll understand each other
Our sadness will disappear into the sky
The moonlight shone down. In the distance, the sound of a flute and festival drums
This commonplace happiness was such a wonderful thing
Let's talk someday about the joy of our meeting
About how we never knew fleeting love
Saying in the wind, fluttering down
Over your shoulder I see a single red leaf
Just come close and we'll understand each other
Our sadness will disappear into the sky
Gently, it draws near. The season shrouded in mist, the beckoning firelight
Venturing out lost and stumbling isn't such a bad way to proceed
May my drifting wishes reach you
Cut-off prayers piling up
There are some memories I can't forget
Over your shoulder, a red sakura leaf
Strong, yet fleeting, they bury the world. I'll offer up this love for eternity
Swaying in the wind, fluttering down
Tonight the dark of night is colored red
I just want to be close and be held in your arms
Until our sadness disappears into the sky
