サクラ、散ル… (Sakura, chiru...- Cherry blossoms, scattering…) by GACKT

キミといたこの場所で

Kimi to ita kono basho de

At the place where I was with you,
また季節は通り過ぎて

Mata kisetsu wa toorisugite

the seasons are again passing by,
見上げた夜空には変わらない

Miageta yozora ni wa kawaranai

[but] the night sky we stared up into is unchanging.
あの日のキミが嗤う

Ano hi no kimi ga warau

You from that day is smiling.

消せなくて

Kesenakute

I can’t erase [that day],
儚すぎて

Hakanasugite

[the day that was] ever so fleeting.
キミの名を叫び続けた

Kimi no na wo sakebitsuzuketa

I continued to scream your name.

愛しくて

Itoshikute

Beloved,
また逢いたくて

Mata aitakute

I want to see you again.
僕の声　聞こえますか?

Boku no koe kikoemasu ka?

Can you hear my voice?

サクラ散る花びら掴まえて

Sakura chiru hanabira tsukamaete

I seized the scattering cherry blossom petals,
キミの欠片　抱きしめた

Kimi no kakera dakishimeta

[and] embraced the fragments of you.
涙　どれだけ数えてみても

Namida dore dake kazoete mite mo

No matter how much I try to count the tears,
あの日は戻らない

Ano hi wa modoranai

I [can’t] return to that day.

見上げれば寂しそうな

Miagereba sabishisou na

If you look up, it looks lonely, [doesn’t it?]
舞い散る星空　抱きしめ

Maichiru hoshizora dakishime

Embrace the starry sky that dances as it falls.
二度とふたり　離れないように

Nidoto futari hanarenai you ni

So that we are not separated again,
キミの足下照らすよ

 Kimi no ashimoto terasu yo

I will light up your [way].

届きそうで

Todokisou de

It seems like [I] will reach you,
届かなくて

Todokanakute

but I don’t,
どれだけ手を伸ばしても

Dore dake te wo nobashite mo

no matter how far I reach out my hand.

遠すぎて

Toosugite

[You’re] too far away,
壊れそうで

Kowaresou de

seeming like you will break.
僕の涙　見えますか?

Boku no namida miemasu ka?

Can you see my tears?
