SAYOUNARA (L'ARC~EN~CIEL)

KANJI
はばたく翼を広げてく小さな空へ
静かに時代は動いて
この朝に別れを連れてきたよ
風にのせて

僕らは気付かぬふりをしていたんだね 多分…
むじゃきにはしゃいでいたけど
この時を何処かで見つめていた

もう一度笑ってみせて 困らないで
今日はおとなしいんだね
あの頃へ帰りたいけど…
また会えるね ありがとう
それまで…
さようなら

舞い散る花びらが笑ってる
かざりに最後のくちづけを!
黙っていたら 涙がこぼれてしまいそうだから
お願い

もう一度笑ってみせて ふるえないで
顔を上げてごらん
新しい季節が来たら
また会えるね ありがとう
愛してくれて…
さようなら

Into a small sky I flap my spread off wings
a calm era is now shifting
In this morning along with the wind
Separation has been brought

Maybe we just pretended not to realize, wasn't it?
We did amused ourselves but
Even in times like this I would find you staring out of nowhere

Don't bother in showing me your smile once more
Today is so quiet, isn't it?
I want to go back to that time again but...
We will meet again... thank you
Until then... farewell

The flower petals falling over are the ones smiling
Give me the last ornamental kiss!
These silent tears, they seem to end up overflowing
That's why I beg of you

Don't exert to show me your smiling face once more
Hold your face up high
When a new season comes
We will meet again... thank you
I love you... farewell

私が生まれた朝の街
雪の中に埋もれた
それはそれは小さい手で
青空をあおいだ
さながら　昔からよく知る
となりの　あの娘のように
片方の耳たぶで聴く
卒業のカノン
1人でも　大丈夫よって
めくれてる　私のストーリー
誰かのせいにしたいよ
つらいなあ。いや。嫌。

右利きの　おりこうさんには
雨上がりを　あげよう
手作りの　フォーチュンクッキー
食べながら　でかけよう
哀しくって　泣いてばっかりいたら
芽が溶けて無くなった
秋になり　また　冬になり
ひとつ年をとった
遠くまで　逃げているつもりでも
終わらない　君のストーリー
にやにや　笑っている
ふがいないや。いや。

すがりながら
追いかけてみても
あしげにされても
空いた穴を　埋めよう
ちがいないや。いや。

かさねあう　もたれあう
すててしまうんだ　もうすぐ
消えてしまう　愛しい人も
優しい日々よ　もうすぐ

In the morning, the town I was born in
Was buried under a snowdrift
Well, well, with a tiny hand
I fanned the blue sky
Just like that girl next door
Whom I've known really well for ages
With one earlobe, I listen to
A graduation canon
I say I'll be all right even if I'm alone
And my story gets turned inside out
I want to make it someone else's fault
It hurts so much. I hate it. I hate it.

Let me give what comes after the rain
To a very talented genius
Let's head out while we eat
My homemade fortune cookies
When you do nothing but cry when it's sad
The buds thaw and disappear
Autumn comes, winter comes again
And it's taken one year
You intended on running far away
But your story won't end
I'm grinning broadly
It's so cowardly, and I hate it.

While I cling to you
Even if I try chasing after you
Even if I get kicked for it
Let's fill up an open hole
There's no mistaking it. I hate it.

I'll overlap them, I'll lean against them
I'll throw them all out very soon
The people I adore and the gentle days
Will disappear completely very soon

In the morning, the town I was born in
Was buried under a snowdrift
Well, well, with a tiny hand
I fanned the blue sky
You intended on running far away
But your story won't end
I'm grinning broadly
It's so cowardly, and I hate it.

While I cling to you
Even if I try chasing after you
Even if I get kicked for it
Let's close up an open hole
There's no mistaking it. I hate it.
It's so cowardly, and I hate it.
It hurts so much. I hate it. I hate it.

夢のつづき　追いかけていたはずなのに
曲がりくねった　細い道　人につまずく
あの頃みたいにって　戻りたい訳じゃないの
無くしてきた空を　探してる
わかってくれますような
犠牲になったような　悲しい顔はやめてよ

罪の最後は涙じゃないよ　ずっと苦しく背負ってくんだ
出口見えない感情迷路に　誰を待ってるの？
白いノートに綴ったように　もっと素直に吐き出したいよ
何から　逃れたいんだ　
・・・現実ってやつ？

叶えるために　生きてるんだって
忘れちゃいそうな　夜の真ん中
無難になんて　やってられないから

この想いを　消してしまうには　まだ人生長いでしょ？
懐かしくなる　こんな痛みも歓迎じゃん

謝らなくちゃいけないよね　ａｈ、ゴメンね
うまく言えなくて　心配かけたままだったね
あの日　かかえた全部　あした　かかえる全部
順番つけたりは　しないから
わかってくれますように
そっと目を閉じたんだ　見たくないものまで　見えんだもん

いらないウワサにちょっと　初めて聞く発言どっち？
２回会ったら友達だって？？　ウソはやめてね
赤いハートが苛立つように　身体ん中燃えているんだ
ホントは　期待してんの
・・・現実ってやつ？

叶えるために　生きてるんだって
叫びたくなるよ　聞こえていますか？
無難になんて　やってられないから
・・・帰る場所もないの
優しさには　いつも感謝してる　だから強くなりたい
進むために　敵も味方も歓迎じゃん

どうやって次のドア　開けるんだっけ？考えてる？
もう引き返せない　物語　始まってるんだ
目を覚ませ　目を覚ませ

この想いを　消してしまうには　まだ人生長いでしょ？
やり残してるコト　やり直してみたいから
もう一度ゆこう

叶えるために　生きてるんだって

I am supposed to pursue my dream
in this narrow winding road, stuttering in the crowds of people

It’s not that I want to return to that past,
I am just searching for the sky I have lost.
I hope you understand.
Don’t show the sad face as if you have been sacrificed.

Tears do not end a sin. We have to carry it with us through
in this maze of feelings with no ends in sight.
Who am I waiting for?
As scribbled on the blank note, I want to be more honest.
What do I want to escape from?
Is it this thing called “reality”?

“For what am I living?”
In the middle of the night as my memories are fading.
I can’t play safe anymore,
but there is nowhere to go too.
There’s still so much in life to remove this feeling.
I will feel nostalgic about it.
I welcome this pain.

I have to apologize for this. Ah, I’m sorry.
I can’t say it well. I’m just causing worries.

Everything that I embraced that day.
Everything that I will embrace tomorrow
I will not arrange them in any order.
I hope you understand. I closed my eyes
but I could still see things I do not want to see.

Unnecessary rumours that I hear for the first time, so what?
“Face it and you will be friends”
Don’t tell lies like these.
My heart being agitated from deep inside,
a burning sensation runs through my body.
Actually I’m expecting something
from this thing called “reality”.

“For what am I living?”
I want to shout it out loud. Can you hear me?
I can’t play safe anymore,
but there is nowhere to go too.
I am grateful for all the kindness,
so I want to become stronger to march on.
I do welcome friends and foes.

How do I open the next door? I’m thinking.
The unretractable story has begun.
Open your eyes. Open your eyes.

There is still so much in life to remove this feeling.
I want to start all over again so that I can complete what I haven’t done.
Shall we go AGAIN?

“For what am I living?”
I want to shout it out loud. Can you hear me?
I can’t play safe anymore,
but there is nowhere to go too.
I am grateful for all the kindness,
so I want to become stronger. I feel the nostalgia.
I welcome this pain.

僕は今　さがしはじめた　水しぶきあげて

果てしなく続く世界へ
あふれだす情熱を胸に　どこまでも行くよ
まだ見ぬヒカリ　求め

夏色太陽が　ココロの帆をゆらせば
あたらしい世界への　扉を開く合図
波間にゆれてる　絶望を抜けて
水平線の向こう側　目指して

僕は今　さがしはじめた　水しぶきあげて
果てしなく続く世界へ
あふれだす情熱を胸に　どこまでも行くよ
まだ見ぬヒカリ　求め

きまりきった毎日と　ありふれた雲の流れ
君にも映ってる　知るはずもない未来
変わらないことで　傷つかなくても
それじゃ夢も希望さえもない　さぁ行こう

僕はなぜ　さがしてるんだろう　何がほしいんだろう
答えはきっとその先に
動き出す世界の中へ　ココロして行くよ
まだ見ぬチカラ秘めて

僕はなぜ　さがしてるんだろう　何がほしいんだろう
まだ見ぬタカラはどこに
あふれだす情熱を胸に　どこまで行ける？
わからないけれど

僕は今　さがしはじめた　水しぶきあげて
果てしなく続く世界へ
あふれだす情熱を胸に　どこまでも行くよ
まだ見ぬ光　求め

その　向こうへ

I've just now begun to search, over the splashing waves
For the everlasting world
With this overflowing passion in my chest, I will go anywhere
Seeking the light yet unseen

When the summer sun shakes my heart's sail
That's the signal to open the door to a new world
Swaying on the waves, supassing my despair
Aiming for the other side of the horizon

I've just now begun to search, over the splashing waves,
For the everlasting world
With this overflowing passion in my chest, I will go anywhere,
Seeking the light yet unseen

A current of repetitious days and mundane clouds
I see reflected in you a future you can't possibly know
Even if I avoid pain by not changing
That leaves me without dreams or even hope -- so let's go!

Why am I searching? What is it I want?
The answer is surely somewhere ahead
My heart will go on to the moving world
Hiding my yet unseen strength

Why am I searching? What is it I want?
Where is the yet unseen treasure?
With this overflowing passion in my chest, how far can I go?
I don't know, but

I've just now begun to search, over the splashing waves,
For the everlasting world
With this overflowing passion in my chest, I will go anywhere,
Seeking the light yet unseen

To the other side

太陽が味方する日に焼けた君が手をふるから
期待してんだ約束の季節に飛び込む人魚みたいに

校舎のすみに日まわりが咲く照れてばかりじゃカッコ悪いね
青空にいま叫びたいほど君を想ってる

夏が来るから海へ行こうよ
ちょっとだけ立ち止まって迷う日もあるけど
ヘコむ毎日取り戻す日々君に会って笑いあって
始まるよ夏休み　LAN LA LAN LA～♪

走り出した背中には嘘のない気持ちが映るから
Tシャツの向こう側キラキラ輝く魔法みたいだ

花火の音にかき消されてる君の言葉が夜風と変わる
肝心なとこ聞こえないけど判りあえそうさ

AH LONG LONG LONG TIME　待ちこがれてた
青春ってほんのちょっと意地悪だよね

ヘコむ毎日取り戻す日々君に会って笑いあって
始まるよ夏休み　LAN LA LAN LA～♪

砂浜に座り込んで二人で時計気にしていた
波の音聞きながら約束なんて出来ないまま

懐かしくなるいつか必ず
砂に書いた未来なんてあてに出来ない

ヘコむ毎日　取り戻す日々君に会って笑いあって
“真っ赤なブルーだ”

夏が来るから海へ来たんだ
虹になったあの空を忘れたくない

ヘコむ毎日取り戻す日々君に会って笑いあって
始まるよ夏休み　LAN LA LAN LA～♪

The sun is on my side because you're waving to me, suntanned and all
Have been anticipating this Diving like a mermaid into the season of promises

In a corner of the school grounds the sunflowers are blooming Just being shy will look uncool
To the extent of wanting to yell into the blue sky now I'm thinking of you

Summer is here so let's go to the sea
Though there may be days where we stop in our tracks and feel lost just for a second

Disheartening days Revitalizing days Meeting you and laughing together
The summer holidays are beginning lan la lan la~

Because true emotions are reflected upon the back of my running figure
It shimmers on the other side of my T-shirt just like magic

Your words which are being drown out by the sounds of the fireworks, dissolve into the night breeze
Can't hear the important details but I seem to know what it is

Ah long long long time I have been longing for this
Youth is something which is a teeny bit mean isn't it

Disheartening days Revitalizing days Meeting you and laughing together
The summer holidays are beginning lan la lan la~

Sitting on the sandy shores Both of us taking notice of the time
Hearing the sound of the waves and being unable to make any promise at all

Definitely will feel nostalgic someday
Can't depend on the future written in the sand

Disheartening days Revitalizing days Meeting you and laughing together
“It's a bright red-blue”

Because summer is here we came to the sea
Don't wish to forget that sky where the rainbow has formed

Disheartening days Revitalizing days Meeting you and laughing together
The summer holidays are beginning lan la lan la~

色づく川辺にあの日を探すの

それぞれの道を選び
ふたりは春を終えた
咲き誇る明日は

今年もあの花がつぼみをひらく

君がいない日々を超えて
あたしも大人になっていく
こうやって全て忘れていくのかな
「本当にすきだったんだ」
さくらに手を伸ばす
この想いが今春につつまれていくよ

さくらひらひら舞い降りて落ちて
揺れる想いのたけを抱き寄せた
君とくれし強きあの言葉は
今も　胸に残る
さくら舞いゆく

さくらひらひら舞い降りて落ちて
揺れる想いのたけを抱きしめた
遠き春に夢見しあの日々は
空に消えていくよ

さくらひらひら舞い降りて落ちて
春のその向こうへと歩き出す

The cherry blossoms fell, fluttering down
Embracing every bit of my fluttering love
Even now, I’m dreaming the dream I prayed for with you that spring
The cherry blossoms scatter

From the train I could see
The traces of one day
The big bridge we crossed together
Graduation time came
And you left town
On the colourful riverbank, I search for that day

We went our separate ways
And brought our spring to an end
My future is in full bloom
But it fills me with panic
This year, once again, the cherry blossoms are reflected
In the window of the Odakyuu train
In my heart
I hear your voice

The cherry blossoms fell, fluttering down
Embracing every bit of my fluttering love
Even now, I’m dreaming the dream I prayed for with you that spring
The cherry blossoms scatter

The start of my letter to you
Says “I’m doing OK”
You’ll see through that little lie, won’t you?
Even the town going past
Is taking in the spring
The flowers are opening their buds again this year

I’ll get through these days without you
And I, too, will grow up
Will I forget everything?
“I really loved you”
I hold out my hands to the cherry blossoms
Now my love is wrapped in the spring

The cherry blossoms fell, fluttering down
Embracing every bit of my fluttering love
Even now, the strong words you gave me
Remain in my heart; the cherry blossoms dance

The cherry blossoms fell, fluttering down
Embracing every bit of my fluttering love
Those days I dreamed of on that distant spring day
Disappear into the sky

The cherry blossoms fall, fluttering down
And I walk out into the spring
I clutch the dream I promised you that spring
Tightly to my chest; the cherry blossoms dance
