Yamaguchi Momoe Lyrics: Aoi Kajitsu (青い果実; Unripe Fruit)

English translation and romanization below the cut.

ENGLISH

If that’s what you wish Then I don’t mind what you do with me I don’t mind if they spread rumors That I’m a naughty girl

When I fell in love, somewhere inside me I felt a different me awaken I shed pretty tears As you hold me against your big, broad chest If I could be by your side, if I could be by your side I would fear no one If that’s what you wish Then I don’t mind what you do with me I don’t mind if they spread rumors That I’m a naughty girl

When I fell in love, somewhere in my heart I was reborn as someone different Bashfully, I open my eyes a tad And open up about my secret for the very first time If I could be by your side, if I could be by your side I wouldn’t want anything else If that’s what you wish Then I don’t mind what you do with me I don’t mind if they spread rumors That I’m a naughty girl

Kubota Saki Lyrics: Ihoujin (異邦人; Stranger)

English translation and romanization below the cut.

ENGLISH

Children open up their arms, facing the sky Trying to catch birds, clouds, their dreams in them I knew nothing about what that looked like until just yesterday I really believed these fingers of mine would reach you

In the distance where the sky and the earth meet Is a road, calling out to a traveler from the past

To you I’m just a passerby Just a stranger you saw when you turned around for a moment

I wander to and fro through a stone-paved town, Letting myself be swept up in the crowd headed for the market Voices saying prayers, the sound of hooves, an almost sing-song hustle and bustle A white morning, leaving me in the dust

For some reason, time travel Has stopped up the wounds of my heart. What a curious road this is

I keep hesitating while I write a letter only saying “goodbye” A foreigner with sadness to spare A foreigner with sadness to spare

Yamaguchi Momoe Lyrics: Ii Hi Tabidachi (いい日旅立ち; Setting Off on a Good Day)

English translation and romanization below the cut.

ENGLISH

When I head for the northern skies, close to where the snow is melting And cry out dreams of days gone by The thought of people who shan’t return home crosses my impassioned heart Starting today, at the very least, I’ll be going on a journey all by myself

Ah, somewhere in Japan Somebody is waiting for me Setting off on a good day, in search of the sunset Taking with me a song I heard on my mother’s back…

A boy is fishing at the end of the cape Will he go back home, down a path of green maiden grass? In order to make memories from here on I plan to write “goodbye” in the sand with a piece of deadwood

Ah, somewhere in Japan Somebody is waiting for me Setting off on a good day, in search of floccus clouds Taking with me a song my father taught me…

Ah, somewhere in Japan Somebody is waiting for me Setting off on a good day, in search of happiness Taking with me a s ong I sang when I was a child…
