Utada Hikaru

Romaji by Megchan

Romaji

Ten to ten wo tsunagu you ni
Sen wo kaku yubi ga nazoru no wa
Watashi no kita michi sore to mo yukusaki

Sen to sen wo musubu futari
Yagate minna umi ni tadoritsuki hitotsu ni naru kara
Kowakunai keredo

Ikutsumo no kawa wo nagare
Wake mo kikazu ni
Ataerareta namae to tomo ni
Subete wo uke ireru nante
Shinakute ii yo
Watashitachi no itami ga ima tobitatta

Ken to ken ga butsukariau oto wo
Shiru tame ni takusareta ken ja nai yo
Sonna mujun de dare wo mamoreru no

Nandomo sugata wo kaete
Watashi no mae ni maiorita anata wo
Kyou wa sagashiteru
Doko demo uke irerareyou to
Shinai de ii yo
Jibun rashisa to iu tsurugi wo minna sazukatta

Toki ni wa nagare wo kaete
Nanimo motazu ni
Ataerareta namae to tomo ni
Subete wo uke ireru nante
Shinakute ii yo
Shiokaze ni mukai toritachi ga ima tobitatta

English

My finger draws a line
Between two points
Those points are the road I’ve walked so far, and my destination

The two of us are joing two points
Eventually we’ll reach the sea and become one
Though I’m not afraid…

Countless rivers flow
Without so much as asking why
We don’t have to
Accept everything
As freely as the names we were given
Now all our pain had flown away

This sword hasn’t been entrusted to us
So that we can hear the sound of one sword striking another
Who can we protect with such a contradiction?

I’m searching today
For you, who changed your form so many times
Before you descended before me
We don’t need to try
To be accepted anywhere
We have all been blessed with a sword of individuality

Sometimes it’s OK to change the direction in which we flow
Without taking anything with us
We don’t have to
Accept everything
As freely as the names we were given
Now the birds have flown away, into the sea breeze
