Recently I'm addicted to this song. I love Aoi Teshima-chan. She can create a special feeling when she sings - calm, pure, earnest and kind of innocent. When she sings on the stage, she wears a long dress and her hairstyle looks like a school girl. She never dances, but only with a mic, she sings with all her heart.
If there's a word that I can use to describe her image in general, that is "angelic." And I love to call her my little angel.

Ai wo komete. Umi (With love. Sea)
The time I met you,
Poppy flowers were blossoming.
Do you still remember it?
A telephone pole inclined towards
An old stone wall and hedge.
On a black heavy bicycle,
You became a wind,
Taking me away from top of the hill.
The time you set out on the trip,
Poppy flowers were blossoming.
Do you still remember it?
At the glittering sea, signs of floating ships,
Fragrance of blue pine trees,
Those were also sad.
But I knew that
I could begin rowing even all by myself.
A sea breeze is blowing on the hill road,
Bringing a letter to me.
Surely, it’s always from you,
Wherever you are.
I’m very fine.
I’ve grown taller than last year.
I’m always here,
Now, from now on, and also earlier,
Praying for the safety of your trip.
From the poppy hill,
With love.
