歌詞:

[日本語]

[English]

いつもいつも　ありがとうね

Thank you always, always.

なんでそれが言えないんだろ

I wonder why I can't say that.

「負けないことが本当の強さじゃない」

‘Not losing is not the true strength,’

そう教えてくれたあなた

that's what you taught me.

沈丁花の花 種をまいた九月

The Daphne flowers were sown in September,

僕が何か分からなくなって、しまった十月

when I lost my way in October.

弁当箱の愛を食べ切れず残して

Leaving behind my lunchbox love unfinished.

暗い顔なんて見せまいと 笑い方を忘れた十二月

Trying not to show a dark face, I forgot how to smile in December.

平凡でごめんよ母さん

Sorry for being so ordinary, Mom.

ただいま「おかえり」あと、あのさ

I'm home—’Welcome back’—and then, you know...

いつもいつも　ありがとうね

Thank you always, always.

なんでそれが言えないかな

Why is it so hard to say that?

「選ぶ道より、選んだ勇気じゃない？」

‘Isn’t choosing the courage over the path you select?’

そう言ってくれたあなた

that's what you told me.

一丁前の花になるための旅は

The journey to become a proper flower

踏み潰されても起き上がる友と共に続く

continues with friends who pick themselves up after being crushed.

逃げたい！やめたい！少しつらい

I want to run away! I want to quit! It’s a little tough.

ぜんぶあなたに言えてたらなあ

If only I could say everything to you.

もしも僕が諦めてしまっても 笑ってくれますか？

If I give up someday, would you still smile for me?

夢は夢で夢らしく？

Is a dream just a dream, fittingly?

じゃあ僕は僕らしく、こっそりゆっくり迎えに行く

Then I’ll quietly and gradually come to pick you up, in my own way.

いつもいつも ありがとうね

Thank you always, always.

今日はそれが言えなくちゃな

Today, I really need to say that.

「進め！進め！振り返る日のために」

‘Keep moving! Keep moving! For the days when you look back.’

そう思えたんだ僕は

That’s what I was able to think.

文法:

• いつもいつも ありがとうね

  ➔ Repeated adverbial phrase + ありがとう (thank you)

  ➔ The phrase "いつもいつも" emphasizes habitual or constant action, and is followed by "ありがとうね" meaning "thank you" in a casual way.

• 「負けないことが本当の強さじゃない」

  ➔ Negative form + ことが + Noun clause + じゃない (is not)

  ➔ This construction negates the noun clause "負けないこと" (not losing), indicating that true strength is not simply about not losing.

• そう教えてくれたあなた

  ➔ Relative clause + くれた (gave me) with あなた (you)

  ➔ The phrase "そう教えてくれた" means "you taught me that" or "you were the one who told me," with くれた indicating that the action was done for the speaker's benefit.

• 夢は夢で夢らしく？

  ➔ Use of で to set a context or manner + 夢らしく (like a dream)

  ➔ The particle "で" indicates the manner or context in which something is done, here asking if the dream is to be lived like a dream itself (dreamlike manner).

• 振り返る日のために

  ➔ Use of 振り返る (to look back) in the plain form + のために (for the purpose of)

  ➔ The phrase "振り返る日のために" uses the plain form of the verb "振り返る" (to look back) combined with "のために" meaning "for the sake of" or "in order to," indicating purpose.

• 進め！進め！振り返る日のために

  ➔ Imperative form + repetition for emphasis + のために (for the purpose of)

  ➔ The repeated imperative "進め！進め！" (Advance! Advance!) emphasizes encouragement or urging, followed by "のために" signaling purpose.
