[English]
I sneeze at the flower pollen in full bloom (Ow)
Even if tears fill my eyes, I’ll hold them back
I’ll put my secret in a small music box in my heart
Because this is a moment I’ll rewind forever
Please take care of the last page of us two
Could any goodbye be more perfect than this?
Love me only ‘til this spring
Oh, lilac, on the day the flowers fall, goodbye
This kind of ending suits us—farewell, like flower petals
The pure climax of our spring day
Oh, how happy I am
Uu-u-u, Uu-u-u
Love me only ‘til this spring, like the spring breeze
Uu-u-u, Uu-u-u
Love me only ‘til this spring, like the spring breeze
My mood lifts, humming a tune (Lalalala)
Smiling slightly at the corners of my mouth
How is the sky so perfect today, and the wind too?
Today I like myself better
Can you tell me I look pretty, just like our first meeting?
Could any farewell be this sweet?
Love resembles a misty dream
Oh, lilac, on the day the flowers fall, goodbye
This kind of ending suits us—farewell, like flower petals
The pure climax of our spring day
Oh, how happy I am
Uu-u-u, Uu-u-u
Love resembles a misty dream, like drifting clouds
Uu-u-u, Uu-u-u
Love resembles a misty dream, like drifting clouds
Will you forget me someday too?
The expression on my face now and today’s scent?
Like a spring day dream that brushed past during a nap
Oh, lilac, on the day the flowers fall, goodbye
Your answer makes me cry, goodbye—like a promise
The pure climax of our spring day
Oh, how happy I am
Uu-u-u, Uu-u-u
Love me only ‘til this spring, like the spring breeze
Uu-u-u, Uu-u-u
Love me only ‘til this spring, like the spring breeze
Uu-u-u, Uu-u-u
Love resembles a misty dream, like drifting clouds (like drifting clouds)
Uu-u-u, Uu-u-u
Love resembles a misty dream, like drifting clouds
