Lyrics & Translation

[Japanese]

[English]

あなたに愛する人が

I fell in love knowing you have someone you love

いるって分かってて好きになったんです

It's a love that can't be helped, crying deep inside my heart

どうにもならない恋が 胸の奥で

Red, red tears are flowing

赤く、赤く泣いてる

I want to meet you, if we meet again

逢いたい、逢わない、逢えば私はまた

I will want you to hold me

あなたに抱いてほしくなるでしょう

Hiding the sparkling winter constellations

煌めいた冬の星座たちを隠して

The snow that has just begun to fall

シンシン降り始めた雪は

Is a snow white color that knows no dirt

汚れを知らない snow white color

汚れを知らない snow white color

純白の雪の中

In the pure white snow

咲ける花になれるとしたら

If I could become a flower that can bloom

永遠にあなたを待ち続けてたいの

I want to keep waiting for you forever

何もかも白雪色の世界なら

If everything were a world of snow white

鮮やかに 私だけ

Vividly, just me

あぁ、咲けるからよ

Ah, because I can bloom

どうせなら「好きじゃない」と

If you must, please say "I don't like you"

あなた言ってください

Just go ahead and say it

いっそ言ってください

This faintly hopeful unrequited love

仄かに期待している 片想いが

Is burning, burning

チリリ チリリ燃えてる

チリリ チリリ燃えてる

寒い、寒い、寒い夜ほどまた

On cold, cold nights, I again

あなたに抱いてほしくなるんです

Want you to hold me

凍えてる白い森に迷いこんだら

If I wander into the frozen white forest

シンシン降り積もった雪よ

Oh, the snow that has piled up quietly

私を染めてよ snow white color

Dye me in snow white color

純白の雪の中

In the pure white snow

眠りましょう、瞳を閉じて

Let's sleep, close your eyes

いつまでもあなたを待ち続けてたいの

I want to keep waiting for you forever

春の日に白雪姫はキスされて

On a spring day, Snow White was kissed

哀しみの眠りから

From the sleep of sorrow

そう、目覚めたのよ

Yes, I have awakened

鏡よ、鏡よ、教えて

Mirror, mirror, tell me

この世で一番あの人を

Who in this world loves that person the most?

愛しているのは誰なのでしょうか？

Oh, the white snow is too painful

せつなすぎる白い雪よ

Just tell me one thing

教えて一つだけ

Will that person come to me?

あの人は来てくれるでしょうか？

Someday...

いつか・・・

In the pure white snow

純白の雪の中

If I could become a flower that can bloom

咲ける花になれるとしたら

I want to keep waiting for you forever

永遠にあなたを待ち続けてたいの

If everything were a world of snow white

何もかも白雪色の世界なら

Vividly, just me

鮮やかに 私だけ

Ah, because I can bloom

あぁ、咲けるからよ

In the pure white snow

純白の雪の中

Let's sleep, close your eyes

眠りましょう、瞳を閉じて

I want to keep waiting for you forever

いつまでもあなたを待ち続けてたいの

On a spring day, Snow White was kissed
