月が綺麗な夜に
On a beautiful night with the moon shining bright
森の中でただひとり
All alone in the depths of the forest
この世界から旅立つ前に
Before I embark on my journey from this world
これまでの日々を浮かべる
I let the days gone by float in my mind
裕福じゃない暮らしそれでも
Life isn't wealthy, yet still
いつだってそばには母の優しさ
Mother's kindness has always been by my side
僕の描く絵を大好きだと言ってくれた人
The person who said they loved the pictures I paint
二人生きるために夢も捨て働いて
To live together, dreams were cast aside as we worked
それでも訪れる別れ
Yet still, farewells come knocking at the door
そんな時に君に出会い
It was during such times that I met you
恋に落ちた
I have fallen in love.
愛を知った
I learned about love.
幸せだと
I am happy.
思えたのに
I thought I could feel it.
どうして
Why?
大切なものばかりが
Only the precious things
消えていく 消えてく あぁ
Fading away, fading out, oh
この世界と
This world and
さよならしよう
Let's say goodbye.
会いに行くよ今すぐそこへ
I'm going to meet you right now, over there.
君がいるところまで あぁ
To where you are, oh
愛してるごめんね
I love you, I'm sorry
その時君の声が聞こえた
At that moment, I heard your voice
そうやって自分で全てを
In that way, you end everything yourself
終わりにしてしまえばもう
If you do that, you won't meet anyone anymore
誰にも会えないんだよずっと
Not for a long time, you know
満月の夜に
On a full moon night
Lala lala lala lala ooh ooh
Lala lala lala lala ooh ooh
Lala lala lala lala ooh ooh
Lala lala lala lala ooh ooh
Lala lala lala lala ooh ooh
Lala lala lala lala ooh ooh
終わらせることができず
Unable to bring it to an end
地面に落ちた僕に突然
Suddenly, the moon spoke to me
月が話しかけてきた
As I lay fallen to the ground
そして不思議な力をくれた
And it gave me a wondrous power
描いたものに命を分け与える力
The power to bestow life to what I've drawn
枯れかけた草木も息を吹き返す
Even withered plants revive and breathe again
僕の残りの時間と引き換えに
In exchange for the time I have left
描いていくこの命を元に
Based on this life that I continue to draw
少しずつ分け与えていく あぁ
Little by little, I share it, oh
生きる意味ができたんだ
I found the meaning of living
そんな時あなたと出会った
It was then that I met you
同じように悲しみの中で生きている人
A person living in sorrow just like me
自ら旅立とうとした僕を怒ってくれた人
The one who scolded me for wanting to set out on my own journey
いつの間にか惹かれていった
Before I knew it, I found myself drawn to you
だけどあなたには愛する人がいる
But you have someone you love
あなたを裏切ったひどい人
A terrible person who betrayed you
それでもあなたが愛してしまう人
Yet you find yourself loving someone like that
そんな彼の命が今消えかけている
His life is now fading away
泣きながら彼の名前を (ooh ooh ah ah)
Watching you cry and call out his name (ooh ooh ah ah)
叫ぶあなたを見て決めた (ah)
I decided as I watched you (ah)
一日だけ残して
With just one day remaining
僕の命全て捧げて描いた
I poured out all my life to create this
そして彼は目を覚ました
And then he awoke
嗚呼僕が起こした奇跡に
Ah, to the miracle I brought to life
涙流し喜ぶあなたに
With tears of joy, you celebrate
どうしても伝えたい
I want so desperately to convey
僕の想いを最期に聞いて
Listen to my feelings one last time
こうやって生きる喜びを
The joy of living like this
与えてくれたあなたが
You, who gave me this gift
本当に大好きでした
I truly loved you deeply
さよなら
Goodbye
Lala lala lala lala ooh ooh
Lala lala lala lala ooh ooh
Lala lala lala lala ooh ooh
Lala lala lala lala ooh ooh
Lala lala lala lala ooh ooh
Lala lala lala lala ooh ooh
そしてひとり
And then alone
あなたのこと母のこと
Thinking of you, of mother
君のこと想い目を瞑った
I closed my eyes, thinking of you
長い長い旅の終わり
The end of a long, long journey
やっとまた会えたね
At last, we've met again
