Patorishia Lyrics - Hanasaku Iroha

English

I feel like I've walked a long way, but
my future still seems so blurry
Though I'm scared of standing still, so
I kept on walking wherever it took me

Where did I come from? Where am I going?
I don't even know anything about myself
As if the colors and scents of the
changing days are on the other side of a
glass case

The colors fading away each time I say
goodbye
Have been waiting for me all this time,
at that place not too far away

Before I met you, I pretended to forget
about it
Hiding it in me, unable to tell anyone
But now it's creaking deep inside my
heart, crying "I'm right here"

The strong, pure voice, tender as
morning rays streaming from above
Took hold of my hand, for I kept
insisting to myself that one can only
have one single thing to call a treasure

And it squeezed my hand tightly
Telling me that it's been searching for
me all this time
And just like that, it settled down in
my entwined fingers

Being born into this world just so I
could meet you
Sacrificing myself to protect you
I cannot say any of that but even so,
right now

Whenever I think of you, whenever I
touch your hands
I realize that I have been searching for
something, too
And I slowly come to understand the
meaning of the word "love"

And I slowly come to understand the
meaning of the word "love"

Kanji

随分遠くまで歩いてきたと思うけれどまだ霞む未来

立ち止まることがただ怖いから流されるまま歩いてた

どこから来たのかどこへ向かうのか自分のことさえ
わからないまま

変わりゆく日々の色や匂いはガラスの向こう側のこと

サヨナラするたびに消えてしまった色は
そう遠くない場所でぼくを待っていた

きみに出会うまで忘れたふりをして
誰にも言えずに隠してきたものが
胸の奥で軋んで泣いた ココニイルヨ

降り注ぐ朝の光のようなやわらかな声は清く強く
大切なものはヒトツきりだと決め付けていたぼくの
手を

ぎゅっと握りしめた
ずっと探してたと
ただそれだけで絡まった指に宿るよ

きみに出会うため生まれてきただとか
きみを守るためこの身を捧ぐとか
そんなことは言えないけれど それでも今

きみを想うたびその手に触れるたび
探してたものがぼくにもあったこと
愛してるのコトバの意味を少しずつ知る

愛してるのコトバの意味を少しずつ知る
