Sakura Memory (サクラメモリー)

[nebulancer]

English translation:

If I fling off all hesitations I have and leap into this city

A scenery of cherry blossom buds, heightening my expectations, passes on by

 

Of course I'm worried, but I'll be fine

Since I've come running this far, trusting that there's something fun waiting for me

 

Distant days' memories bloomed in my heart

I'll chase after you and go meet you right now

I'll wave my hands as wide as I can,

And with my absolute best smile,

I'll face forward and offer this melody to you

Alongside these overflowing feelings

Is my promise that'll never change for eternity

May my voice reach the whole world

 

If I just leave my footsteps behind and wipe away my tears

The future will turn so vibrant that it bursts with dazzling light

 

Any lie will become truth: I'll cast this spell to show you just how

I still truly remember that warmth and fragrance from when you once touched me

 

No matter where I am, my memories will connect on and on

Because I'm clutching tight these feelings of "love"

My recollections rushing through my body

Are guiding me on my way

Closing my eyes, I'll present this melody to you

Alongside this precious wish of mine

Our story will keep on going forever

So may it reach the hearts that have come closer to me

 

Distant days' memories bloomed in my heart

I'll chase after you and go meet you right now

I'll wave my hands as wide as I can,

And with my absolute best smile,

I'll face forward and offer this melody to you

Alongside these overflowing feelings

Is my promise that'll never change for eternity

May my voice reach the whole world

Kanji:

 

迷いなど脱ぎ捨てて

この街を飛び出せば

桜の蕾に期待を募らせた

景色が流れてく

 

不安だってもちろんあるの

でも私は大丈夫

楽しい事が待っていると

信じて走って ここまで来たんだから

 

胸に咲いた遠い日々のメモリー

追いかけて 今 会いに行くから

出来るだけ大きく手を振って

とっておきの笑顔で

前を向いて君に捧ぐメロディ

溢れているこの想いと共に

いつまでも変わらない約束と

歌声が世界に響きますように

 

足跡だけ残して

涙を振り払えば

眩しいくらいに弾けて鮮やかな

明日になっていく

 

どんな嘘も本当になる

魔法をかけてみせるよ

いつか君に触れたときの

温度も匂いも確かに覚えてる

 

何処に居たって繋がり合うメモリー

｢大好き｣を抱きしめているから

体中に伝う思い出が

私を導いている

瞳を閉じて君に贈るメロディ

大切なこの願いと共に

とこまでも終わらない物語

近づいた心に届きますように

 

胸に咲いた遠い日々のメモリー

追いかけて 今 会いに行くから

出来るだけ大きく手を振って

とっておきの笑顔で

前を向いて君に捧ぐメロディ

溢れているこの想いと共に

いつまでも変わらない約束と

歌声が世界に響きますように
