Where is it continuing to...? The flow of this river
Secretly holding my thoughts is the floating bamboo-leaf boat
The thoughts floating across our hearts are in each of our chests
kokyuu no kaze ni tsutsumarenagara
kotoshi mo mukaeta natsu matsuri

As I am enveloped in the winds of my birthplace
The summer festival welcoming this year, too,
can stop... that sound is dwelling
in our murmuring voices
kujikesouna hi ni nazeka naru denwa to
kazoku no egao ga ima yasashiku kasanari yuku
nanigoto mo nakute aeta kotoshi mo natsu matsuri ni...
--
Why is it that on the days when I'm about to break, the ringing phone
and my family's smiles is now tenderly piling up?
We were able to meet uneventfully in this year's summer festival, too...
koyoi no sora saku hanabi wa
kyonen yori nazeka totemo kirei de

yume e no kishibe ni chikadzuiteiru to
--
The fireworks blooming in tonight's sky is
for some reason more beautiful than last year's
In that moment I suddenly realized
I was getting close to the banks towards my dreams
iki wa hohoemu kokoro dakedo kaeri wa
te wo furu iro ni namida, afuresou ni naru....
--
On my way going, my heart is smiling but on my way back
the colors falling on my hand tears, as though they're going to overflow
kokyuu no kaze doushite konna ni
tsuyogari wo hodoite kurerun darou
tojikometeita yasuragi no shirabe
mune, shimiwataru
--
The wind of my birthplace why does it
undo my bluffing so?
The melody of peace that was kept
penetrates my chest
hiroi daichi to hatenai kawa wa boku no mune ni katarikakeru yo
kono basho wa sou, kimi no seitan (hajimari)
senaka wo sotto oshiteru yo...itsudemo...
--
This vast earth and endless river has started to speak to my heart (1)
This place yes, is your birth (beginning)
It's softly pushing your back...always...
Romanized & Translated by D.T.
(1) The word here is actually "mune" which means 'chest.' I changed the translation to 'heart' though, which is essentialy what 'mune' refers to. I figured it'd be clearer to just say "speak to my heart" rather than have people wonder why earths and rivers are talking to the singer's.....yeah, you get the point.
