『桜日和』
Just wanted to talk about the song playing in the background of my blog. First heard it in Bleach, the anime (it's the 10th ending song). First took note of it when Gen and Marisa sang during our last karaoke meeting. After that, went to search for it in my office and found the single, and listened to it over and over again, reading the lyrics. This song is written and sung by Hoshimura Mai. Japanese Lyrics十六で君と逢い 百年の恋をしたね ひらひらと舞落ちる 桜の花びらの下で 逢いたくて駆け抜けた 陽のあたる急な坂道や 公園の隅二人の影は 今も変わらぬまま 君と僕と"桜日和"風に揺れて舞い戻る まるで長い夢から覚めたように 見上げた先は桃色の空 好きでした好きでした 笑顔咲き染めた君が 僕だけが知っていた 右側やわらかな居場所 桜の下の約束 「来年もここに来よう」って 何度も確かめあったけど 今も果たせぬまま 君と僕と"桜日和"風にそっと甦る 君も今どこかで見てるのかなぁ あの日と同じ桃色の空 追いかけた日々の中に 刻まれた足跡は 何よりもかけがえのない宝物 君と僕と"桜日和"風に揺れて舞い戻る とめどない想いが溢れ出して 涙がこみ上げた 君と僕と"桜日和"風に揺れて舞い戻る まだ見ぬ未来を胸に抱いて 見上げた先は桃色の空 English LyricsI met you at sixteen And we shared a love a hundred years oldUnder the fluttering, dancing downpetals of the sakura tree I wanted to meet you, so I ranOn the steep hill road where sunlight landsand in the corner of the park our two shadows are unchanging even nowYou, and me, and the sakura weatherI sway in the wind and dance back againAs if I had just awoken from a long dreamI look up and see a pink skyI was in love; I was in lovewith you as your smile began to blossomI alone knew aboutthat soft place on your right sideThe promise under the sakura treeof "Let's come here again next year"We reaffirmed it to each other so many timesbut it remains unfulfilled even nowYou, and me, and the sakura weatherI am gently revived by the windI wonder if now, you're looking at it too,the same pink sky we saw that dayI chased after those days;the footprints engraved in them arethe most irreplaceable treasureYou, and me, and the sakura weatherI sway in the wind and dance back againMy endless emotions overflowed out of meand tears filled my heartYou, and me, and the sakura weatherI sway in the wind and dance back againHolding to my chest a future I can't yet seeI look up and see a pink skySomehow listening to this song and reading the lyrics bring back alot of memories. I can somehow relate to this song. Thought to share it with all of you.
