Lyrics

Japanese	Romaji	English
花びらが宙に浮いた	Hanabira ga chuu ni uita	Petals float in the air,
舞った一足のサンダル	Matta hitoashi no sandaru	Like a pair of sandals, dancing
身体ごと宙に浮いて	Karadagoto chuu ni uite	If I could just rise up
飛んでしまえたら私は	Tonde shimaetara watashi wa	And take flight, then I'd be...
はらはらはら	Hara hara hara	Fluttering, fluttering about
一人で踊ってるだけ	Hitori de odotteru dake	Dancing here by myself,
ただそれだけだ	Tada sore dake da	Just that and nothing more
春先の空気が澄んでいたから、	Harusaki no kuuki ga sunde ita kara,	The weather at the start of spring has become nice and clear,
赤いサンダルを履いて	akai sandaru o haite	And so I put on these red sandals
出かけた先のあの並木のことはあなたから聞いていた	Dekaketa saki no ano namiki no koto wa anata kara kiite ita	This place I've come to is that of row of trees I first heard about from you
桜が並ぶらしい	Sakura ga narabu rashii	The place where sakura trees line the path
顔を伏せるように	Kao o fuseru you ni	I couldn't stand the way
歩く人が多いから嫌になって	aruku hito ga ooi kara iya ni natte	So many people walked by with their faces down,
そしたら飛んでいた桜が切に愉快に見えたから	Soshitara tonde ita sakura ga setsu ni yukai ni mieta kara	Not to mention how the rain of sakura petals was such a happy sight
この道で踊ってやろうと思った	Kono michi de odotte yarou to omotta	And so I thought "I'll dance for them"
タッタラタ、ラッタッタ	Tattarata, rattatta	Tatta-rata, ra-ta-ta
足を運ぶ	Ashi o hakobu	I lift my feet
タッタラタ、ラッタッタ	Tattarata, rattatta	Tatta-rata, ra-ta-ta
音を鳴らす	Oto o narasu	Playing forth a sound
タッタラタ、ラッタッタ	Tattarata, rattatta	Tatta-rata, ra-ta-ta
春を踊るのさ、桜の下で	Haru o odoru no sa, sakura no shita de	I'll dance the dance of spring, beneath the sakura trees
花びらが宙に浮いた	Hanabira ga chuu ni uita	Petals float in the air,
舞った一足のサンダル	Matta hitoashi no sandaru	Like a pair of sandals, dancing
身体ごと宙に浮いて	Karada goto chuu ni uite	If I could just rise up and take flight,
飛んでしまえたら私は	Tonde shimaetara watashi wa	Then I'd be...
はらはらはら	Hara hara hara	Fluttering, fluttering about
一人で踊ってるだけ	Hitori de odotteru dake	Dancing here by myself,
ただそれだけだ	Tada sore dake da	Just that and nothing more
並木を抜けるほど歩く人の	Namiki o nukeru hodo aruku hito no	Even as people moved to avoid me,
冷めた視線も気にならなくなる	Sameta shisen mo ki ni naranaku naru	Their cold stares didn't bother me in the least
足がもつれても、	Ashi ga motsurete mo,	Even as I tripped over my own feet
髪が解けても何か楽しかった	kami ga tokete mo nanika tanoshikatta	And hair came undone, I couldn't help but enjoy it
背を曲げて生きてる私じゃないみたいだ	Se o magete ikiteru watashi janai mitai da	Like I'd become a different person, no longer bent at the waist from those burdens I live with
花びらの落ち方にだって	Hanabira no ochikata ni datte	Even the way these petals fall,
あなたとの思い出が溢れる	Anata to no omoide ga afureru	Causes those memories I made with you to come flooding back
うるさいくらいに私を覆うそれを、	Urusai kurai ni watashi o ouu sore o,	They swallow me up, to the point that I can't think of anything else,
あなたに教えないと	Anata ni oshienai to	if I don't hurry up and tell you...
あなたの葬式を見た	Anata no soushiki o mita	I came to your funeral,
なんてことのないアイロニー	Nante koto no nai aironii	Just your-run-of-the-mill kind of irony
形だけ何か述べて通り過ぎ行く	Katachi dake nanika nobete toorisugi yuku	Just saying something and shuffling along, for propriety's sake
あぁ、私は	Aa, watashi wa	Ah, now here I am,
はらはらはら	Hara hara hara	Fluttering, fluttering about
一人俯いてるだけ、ただそれだけだ	Hitori utsumuiteru dake, tada sore dake da	Hanging my head, all alone, just that and nothing more
花びらが宙に浮いた	Hanabira ga chuu ni uita	Petals float in the air,
舞った一足のサンダル	Matta hitoashi no sandaru	Like a pair of sandals, dancing
貴方ごと宙に消えて	Anata goto chuu ni kiete	If you go away completely, vanishing into thin air,
行ってしまえたら私は	Itte shimaetara watashi wa	I'll still be right here
はらはらはら	Hara hara hara	Fluttering, fluttering about
一人で踊ってるだけ	Hitori de odotteru dake	Just standing here alone
式日を背に	Shikijitsu o se ni	On the day of your funeral
一人俯いてるだけ	Hitori utsumuiteru dake	Hanging my head, all alone,
ただそれだけだ	Tada sore dake da	Just that and nothing more
