枯葉散る夕暮れは
In the evening where withered leaves fall,
来る日の寒さをものがたり
It tells of the chill that tomorrow will bring.
雨に壊れたベンチには
On the bench that the rain has shattered,
愛をささやく歌もない
There are no songs whispering of love.
恋人よ そばにいて
My love, just stay by my side,
こごえる私の そばにいてよ
Stay close to my shivering heart,
そしてひとこと この別ればなしが
And with just one word, about this farewell,
冗談だよと 笑ってほしい
I hope you'll laugh and say it's a joke.

Running swiftly down the gravel path,
マラソン人が行き過ぎる
A marathon runner passes by.
まるで忘却のぞむように
As if to wish for oblivion,
止まる私を誘っている
You are beckoning the stillness of me.
恋人よ さようなら
Goodbye, my lover,
季節はめぐってくるけど
Though the seasons keep turning,
あの日の二人 宵の流れ星
We were once like shooting stars on that night,
光っては消える 無情の夢よ
Flickering and fading, a heartless dream,
恋人よ そばにいて
Stay close, my lover,
こごえる私のそばにいてよ
Be by my side as I tremble,
そしてひとこと この別ればなしが
And with just one word, I hope this parting tale,
冗談だよと 笑ってほしい
Will bring a smile as you say it's a joke.
