This is an English translation of Moriyama Naotaro's "Sakura" that I made in 2008 and finally got around to recording. I translated with love, as a devoted fan of Moriyama Naotaro. Recorded at karaoke.
2008年に作った、森山直太朗の「さくら」の英語バージョンです。一番好きな歌手の一番有名な歌を心を込めて翻訳しました。カラオケで録音したものです。
Lyrics/歌詞
Time fades away, we wait for the day
For the day when you come back home again
We're standing here, no more crying, no more fear
On the lane where cherry blossoms bloom
You were always there when a friend needed care
Just one smile and you could cure their pain
Because of you, we could always make it through
The love you gave erased all of our gloom
So now here we are
But no matter how far
Away you go we'll always be with you
Sakura sakura
As these cherry blossoms bloom
Even they realize that one day a goodbye will have to come
So farewell my friend
But this is not the end
Please stay the same until I see you again
Forget the past, make this moment last
And speak only words we truly feel
Wish you the best, may your future be blessed
And all of your dreams become real
Moments pass us by
As we try not to cry
Wherever you go never forget me
Sakura sakura
As these cherry blossoms fall
They dream silently of next spring when rebirth will come to all
Don't you cry now, my friend
For this is not the end
Keep up that smile until I see you again
Sakura sakura
As these cherry blossoms dance
Blown in all directions by the wind, their fate is left to chance
So farewell, next time, my friend
Let's meet right here again
Or maybe we'll meet somewhere like blossoms in the wind
なんとクリアーな声なんだろう、、、、、久しぶりに感動しました ありがとう。
