Wasurerareta Sakura No Ki
(Forgotten Cherry Tree)

Yoriko

Romaji by Cori

Romaji

Me wo tojiru to
Ukabiagaru
Awakute yasashii, sakura iro...

Saigo no koe wa "oyasumi"
Ima mo mimi no oku de kurikaesu

Doushitemo koe, kikitakatta
Kimi ni aitakute
Demo aenakute

Konna kimochi mo
Konna kotoba mo
Zenbu kimi ga boku ni kureta mono
Taisetsu na omoi dakara...

Wasurerareta sakura no ki
Sawagashii machi de
Haru wo matteta

Itsuka kimi to kugurinuketa
Machihazure no sakura namiki

Ano fuukei wo
Boku wa hisshi de
Me ni yakitsukeru
Wasurenai you ni

Kimi ni atta hi
Kimi ni aenakatta hi
Tada omoidashiteru
Awakute yasashii, sakura iro

Kimi ni aitakute
Demo aenakute
Tada omoi wo hashiraseta
Todokanai mama de...

Wasurerareta sakura no ki
Saigo no hanabira
Kaze no naka e

English

When I close my eyes
I see
A faint, sweet cherry blossom colour…

The last thing you said was “Goodnight”
It keeps on repeating in my ears

No matter what I did, I wanted to hear your voice
Wanting to see you
But unable to

This feeling
And these words
Are all things you’ve given me
This is a precious love…

A forgotten cherry tree
Waited for the spring
In the bustling town

One day I walked through them with you
A row of cherry trees, unusual for this town

I did all I could
To imprint the scenery
In my eyes
So I wouldn’t forget it

The days I saw you
The days I couldn’t see you
Just remind me
Of a faint, sweet cherry blossom colour…

Wanting to see you
But unable to
I just sent you my love
Though it didn’t reach you…

A forgotten cherry tree
Its last petal
Floats away in the wind
