| Original / Romaji Lyrics | English Translation |
|---|
ishikoro o ikutsu kette
kaerimichi no kazoeuta
toomawari shite kaerou
yuuhi ga mieru tokoro made |
Kicking pebbles
The counting song of the way home
I'm taking the long way back
To the place where I can see the setting sun |
tenten naranda shiroi kumo hora
tenten yukkuri akaku naru
nandaka ii hi datta na
ashita tenki ni shite okure | Look! Here and there the lined up white clouds
Are, bit by bit, slowly turning red
Somehow, I feel it was a good day
I hope there's fine weather tomorrow |
chiisa na te o furinagara
nando mo nando mo furikaeru
tooku de kikoeru kaze ni
kodomo-tachi no "mata ashita" | I look back many, many times
While waving my small hand
From far away, carried on the wind, I can hear
The voices of children saying "See you tomorrow" |
dandan yuuhi ga shizunde'ku hora
dandan hoshi ga matatakidasu
nandaka ii hi datta na
ashita tenki ni shite okure | Look! Little by little, the sun is setting
Little by little, the stars come out to shine
Somehow, I feel it was a good day
I hope there's fine weather tomorrow |
kirakira nagareru kawa no ne ni
yurayura yurete'ru o-tsuki-sama
modorou ka kaerou ka
miageta sora ni futto
furusato o omou yo | The sound of the river that sparkles as it flows and
The wobbling, wavering moon
Will I return? Will I go back?
As I look up at the sky, suddenly
I think of my hometown |
dareka ga matte iru ka na
kaerimichi no tsukiakari
ieji o isogu ashioto
mushi-tachi no koe o tomete yuku | I wonder if someone is waiting
In the moonlight on the way home
My hurrying footsteps
Stop the voices of the bugs |
tenten akari no tomoru mado hora
tenten ironna yume mite'ru
nandaka ii hi datta na
ashita tenki ni shite okure
ashita tenki ni shite okure | Look! Here and there, there are lighted windows
Here and there, many dreams are being dreamed
Somehow, I feel it was a good day
I hope there's fine weather tomorrow
I hope there's fine weather tomorrow |
