Hibi No Hotori
(The Banks Of Those Days)

Garnet Crow

Romaji

Shiroi hana ga saki umi no nioi ga todokeba
Kimi wo oikakete fuzaketa natsukashi...hibi no gotori

Yuugure kaze ga fukinukete futari no kyori wo shiru
Tooku mitsumete ita ano hi yori okubyou ni naru

Anata ni te wo hikare aruite ita kono michi

Haruka ookina sora wo mau toritachi mayowazu
Onaji umi e kaeru koto
Oshiete kureta yasashii koe de

Fushigi ne nandomo kikitakute
Wasureta furi wo shita watashi hikiyose
Hohoemu kimi no soba de mita akane iro...hibi no hotori

Itsuka kaeru basho wo sagasu toki kimi wo omou deshou

Hibi wa ame no you ni furitsuzukete tokekomu

Hito wa nagare no naka de nanika todomete yukeru no?
Utsurou mono bakari naraba
Kono kokoro potori otoshitai no ni

“Nukumori” zutto kanjite itai
Furete kotoba wo kawashite itai to
Negai tomedonaku afurete shimau yo...hibi no hotori

Nami no oto ni kiesou na
Yasashii hibi no hotori

English

A white flower blooms, when the scent of the sea reaches it
I chased you, fooling around...on the banks of those nostalgic days

A wind blows at dusk and I realise this distance between us
I become even more of a coward than that day when I gazed off into the distance

You took my hand and led me down this road

You taught me in a gentle voice
That the birds that fly through the big, distant sky
Return to the same sea without hesitation

It’s strange, I wanted to ask so many times
But I pretended to forget, and still you pulled me close
And I looked at the dark red sky by your side as you smiled...on the banks of those days

When I search for a place to go home to someday, I’ll probably think of you

Like rain, the days pour down and melt away

Can people hold onto something in the current?
If everything changes
Then I want to just drop this heart, but...

I want to feel warmth forever
I want to touch you and talk with you
My wishes come in an endless stream...on the banks of those days

On the banks of those sweet days
That seem like they’ll disappear into the sound of the waves
