TRANSLATION

See how the gently fallen snow melts in my hand
Disappearing until nothing is left.. like it was never there
Doesn't it seem like the most important things are the most fragile...
We can't hold onto them, they just drift quietly away


In a distant, faraway corner of the universe
The two of us met by chance
I want to call it a miracle, this feeling,
And I want you alone to know

But I'm no good at saying what I really want to say
Wandering, searching...that's how I've lived
Now, I think I've found my one and only light
But if I try to pursue it, it will only run away...the future is undecided


While stopping along the way over and over again,
We've shared smiles and tears alike

You and I have made this journey
And that's the only truth of which I am certain

* When rain falls, I'll be the umbrella that covers you
When the wind blows, I'll be the wall that shields you
And however deep the dark of night,
Tomorrow will surely come

The flowers that bloom in spring (Love, Love, Always)
And the sandy beaches of summer
An autumn evening (Love, Love, Forever)
And a sunny spot in winter...
However many seasons come and go,
Our prayer will transcend even time and space

Far away... (In a corner of the universe)
Far away... (I think about you)
I want to call it a miracle, this feeling,
And I want you alone to know

While stopping along the way over and over again,
We share smiles and tears alike (more and more)
Because this journey the two of us have made (this journey)
Won't just fade away

* Repeat

I want to tell only you
That tomorrow will surely come

Translator's Notes

This verse has a lot of image invoking language. The verb in the first line, 'maiorita' can be simply translated as 'fallen,' but it's a bit more complicated than that and it's hard to convey the same feeling in a word or two of English, so I let it slide in the lyrics itself. 'Maioriru' means more precisely to fall gently, as if dancing. Pretty, ne? ^^ As such, it's often used for the falling of snow in songs. The third line would more literally be 'aren't important/precious things easily broken.' I chose to use fragile because I felt it suited the imagery of hard to grasp things and their tendency to melt/slip away.

The last part of this pair of lines, 'mirai wa ochitsukanai' was a little difficult to work with. I originally translated it as 'the future won't be tamed' but then thought maybe that was pushing it a little too far. The impression I got was that he can't just be like 'alright, this is my future,' he has to live and see where life takes him/where he takes himself.

The verb used in the second line here, 'tsumikasaneru,' means literally to pile/build up. The idea is of something you accumulate. I couldn't really get this into English in a pretty, song-lyric-appropriate way, so I went with a much looser translation and opted for the prettier sounding, more simply expressed English word 'share.' This idea of 'accumulating' is also why I translated it as 'more and more' towards the end of the song.

The verb in the second line is 'kiesaru,' which means 'to vanish away'. This sounds a little odd in English to me, so I went with 'fade.'




Japanese Kanji

作詞: 妹尾武・小山内舞
作曲: 妹尾武

明日は来るから

ほら 舞い降りた雪がこの手に溶けては
まるで何もなかったように消えてく
ねえ 大切なことは壊れやすいから
僕たちにはつかめない 静かに漂うだけ

はるかな はるかな 宇宙の片すみ
こうしてふたりが出会えた偶然
奇跡と呼びたいこの気持ちを
君だけに伝えたいよ

ただ 伝えたいことがうまく言えなくて
迷いながら さがしながら 生きてた
いま ひとつの光を見つけた気がして
追いかければ逃げてゆく 未来は落ち着かない

何度も何度も立ち止まりながら
笑顔と涙を積みかさねてゆく
ふたりが歩いたこの道のり
それだけが確かな真実

雨降るときには君の傘になろう
風吹くときには君の壁になろう
どんなに闇の深い夜でも
かならず明日は来るから

春に咲く風や (Love, Love, Always)
夏の砂浜
秋の黄昏や (Love, Love, Forever)
冬の陽だまり
いくつもいくつもの季節がめぐり (Love, Love, Always)
重ねあう祈りは 時空さえ超えてゆく

はるかな (宇宙の片すみにいて)
はるかな (想いをはせる)
奇跡と呼びたいこの気持ちを
ただ君だけに伝えたいよ

何度も何度も立ち止まりながら
笑顔と涙を積みかさねてゆく (かさねてゆく)
ふたりがあるいたこの道のり (道のり)
消え去ることはないから (Oh Year)

雨降るときには君の傘になろう
風吹くときには君の壁になろう
どんなに闇の深い夜でも
かならず明日は来るから
君だけに伝えたいよ
かならず明日は来るから
