「夏の手紙」 “Summer Letter”


Kanji Romaji English
いつまでも
いつまでも座り込んで
川せみを
静かに聞いてました
itsumademo
itsumademo suwarikonde
kawa semi wo
shizuka ni kiite mashita
Forever,
forever sitting down
we were quietly
listening to the river cicadas
小石拾い上げて
投げたら思いもかけず
大きな音しました
koishi hiroi agete
nagetara omoi mo kakezu
ookina oto shimashita
As we picked up pebbles and threw them
without thinking twice
They made a loud noise
襟あしが
夏の匂いに小さく
漂って
そして脈うつのです
eriashi ga
natsu no nioi ni chiisaku
tadayotte
soshite myaku utsu no desu
The base of my neck,
in the smell of the summer,
Drifts about slightly,
then my heart starts beating
無言の時計と
暗くなるのを待つのです
その全てははかないです
mugon no tokei to
kuraku naru no wo matsu no desu
sono subete wa hakanai desu
Together with the silent watch,
I’m waiting for the darkness
All of this is fleeting
あれから一年が過ぎ
どうやら一人きりです
愛していたのかしらと
愛しすぎたかしらと
胸の中にしまってた
宛名のない手紙を
河の流れよ
今は受け取って下さい
arekara ichinen ga sugi
douyara hitori kiri desu
aishite ita no kashira to
aishisugita kashira to
mune no naka ni shimatteta
atena no nai tegami wo
kawa no nagare yo
ima wa uketotte kudasai
One year has passed since that,
and somehow I’m all alone
“Did I perhaps fall in love?
Did I perhaps love you too much?”
This was shut inside my heart,
a letter without recipient
The flow of the river –
please, receive it now
夕映えが
熱いからだをそのまま
河の中に
投げ出して冷やして
yuubae ga
atsui karada wo sono mama
kawa no naka ni
nagedashite hiyashite
In the sunset glow,
as my body is hot,
I’m throwing it inside
the river to cool it
一人づくしの夏
思いもかけず横顔を
ふいに見せに来るのです
hitori zukushi no natsu
omoi mo kakezu yokogao wo
fui ni mise ni kuru no desu
In the summer I’m spending alone,
without thinking twice,
You suddenly come to show me your face
あれから冬が過ぎ去り
そして春を越えました
愛していたのだろうと
愛は流れていくと
夏の手紙に託して
振り返ることもせずに
河は何も知らずに
乗せて行くようです
arekara fuyu ga sugi sari
soshite haru wo koe mashita
aishite ita no darou to
ai wa nagarete iku to
natsu no tegami ni takushite
furikaeru koto mosezu ni
kawa wa nani mo shirazu ni
nosete iku you desu
Since then, winter has passed,
and then I crossed over spring
“Did I perhaps fall in love?
Is love still flowing?”
I entrusted those in the summer letter
and the river seems to carry it
Without turning back,
without even knowing anything
