Letra:

[日本語]

[English]

船に乗るわけじゃなく だけど僕は港にいる

I'm not boarding a ship, but I'm at the port

知らない人だらけの隙間で 立ち止まる

I stop in a gap filled with strangers

遠くに旅立った君に 届けたい言葉集めて

Gathering words I want to send to you, who has set off far away

縫い合わせてできた歌ひとつ 携えて

Carrying a song stitched together

汚れてる野良猫にも いつしか優しくなるユニバース

Even the dirty stray cats will eventually find kindness in the universe

黄昏にあの日二人で 眺めた謎の光思い出す

I remember the mysterious light we gazed at together that day at dusk

君ともう一度会うために作った歌さ

It's a song I made to meet you once more

今日も歌う 錆びた港で

Today I sing at the rusty port

...

...

勇気が出ない時もあり そして僕は港にいる

There are times when I lack courage, yet I'm at the port

消えそうな綿雲の意味を 考える

I ponder the meaning of the fading cotton clouds

遠くに旅立った君の 証拠も徐々にぼやけ始めて

The evidence of you, who has traveled far, is gradually starting to blur

目を閉じてゼロから百まで やり直す

Closing my eyes, I start over from zero to a hundred

すれ違う微笑たち 己もああなれると信じてた

The passing smiles made me believe I could become like that too

朝焼けがちゃちな二人を染めてた あくびして走り出す

The morning glow dyed the two of us in a cheap way, yawning and starting to run

君ともう一度会うための大事な歌さ

It's an important song to meet you once more

今日も歌う 一人港で

Today I sing alone at the port

...

...

汚れてる野良猫にも いつしか優しくなるユニバース

Even the dirty stray cats will eventually find kindness in the universe

黄昏にあの日二人で 眺めた謎の光思い出す

I remember the mysterious light we gazed at together that day at dusk

君ともう一度会うために作った歌さ

It's a song I made to meet you once more

今日も歌う 錆びた港で 港で 港で

Today I sing at the rusty port, at the port, at the port

...

...
