月ノ鐘 || The Moon’s Bell

日本語

欠けていく月明かり
目を閉じて
耳をあなたの声に
傾け続けた

心の水面に映るのは
あの満ちたままの月影
形壊れぬよう
両手で掬い上げる（そっと）

今もう一度あの日に 戻れるのなら
もう少し素直に 手を握りたい
鐘の音が響く度に
思い出す二人の詩(しらべ)

そしてもう一度あなたと 歩いてみたい
何度でも何度でも 見つめながら
あの幸せを
永遠に感じて（近くで）
笑い続けるから

何度も読み返した
ページには（今も）
いくつも重ね綴る
景色が広がり

気づけばそこに立つ私は
ありふれた日々に包まれ
何気ない言葉も
二人を繋ぐための（時間）

あと少しでいいから
二人でいたい
あなたに温もり
残したいの
一滴分の言葉を
胸に落とさせてお願い

たとえもう二度とあなたに
会えないとしても
何度でも何度でも
思い出せる
どれだけ小さなことでも
全てが（二人の）
満ちる月に変わる

同じ 景色
二人 歩く

ねえ
もしもう一度あの日に 戻れるのなら
もう少し素直に 手を握りたい
鐘の音が響く度に
思い出す二人の景色

そしてもう一度あなたと 歩いてみたい
いつまでもいつまでも 二人きりで
あの幸せに包まれた
全ては（あなたから）
満ちる月に変わる

鐘の音
高くへ

Translation

The moonlight wanes
and I close my eyes.
I kept listening
to your voice.

The moon, still full,
was reflected on my heart’s lake.
So it wouldn’t lose its shape
I scooped it out with both hands (gently).

If I could return to that day once more
I want to hold your hand for just a little longer, nothing more.
Each time the bell rings
I remember our melody.

And I want to walk with you once more
while looking at you, over and over again.
I’ll feel that happiness
right there, forever (close by)
since I can keep smiling.

Upon the pages
that I reread countless times (even now),
myriad overlapping landscapes
spread out.

Before I knew it, I was enveloped
by ordinary days while standing there.
Casual words
tied us together (during the hours).

Just a little longer is fine
but I want to be with you.
I want to leave my warmth
behind with you.
Please, let a teardrop’s worth of words
fall upon my heart.

Even if you and I
can never meet again,
I can remember you
time and time again.
Even the smallest thing
will become (our very own)
waxing moon.

Together, we walk
in the same landscape.

Hey,
If I could return to that day again,
I want to hold your hand for just a little longer, nothing more.
Each time the bell rings
I remember our landscape.

I want to walk with you once more.
Always, always, we were enveloped
by that happiness, all alone.
Everything (from you)
becomes a waxing moon.

The sounds of the bell
travel high.
