緑(みどり)揺(ゆ)れる午後(ごご)の空(そら) 幾(いく)つ目(め)の飛行機(ひこうき)かな
How many planes have crossed the green, swaying afternoon sky?
遠(とお)く潮騒(しおさい)が届(とど)いて 客船(きゃくせん)が泊(と)まった
The sound of distant waves arrives; a passenger ship has docked
 
 
住(す)み慣(な)れたこの町(まち)はいつも
This town where I've long since settled in
stranger(みしらぬひと)で賑(にぎ)わう
Always comes alive when strangers arrive
100年(ねん)前(まえ)も変(か)わらない場所(ばしょ)
A place unchanged since a hundred years ago
 
 
I'm a traveler
I'm a traveler
息(いき)を切(き)らして駆(か)け抜(ぬ)けたこの道(みち)で
On this road I once ran down, gasping for breath
you're a stranger
You're a stranger
消(き)えかけた遠(とお)い記憶(きおく)から
As if pushed away
はじかれてるみたい
By those distant memories slowly disappearing
 
 
頼(たよ)り途絶(とだ)えたとしても いつか会(あ)える気(き)がしてた
Even if we lose touch, I always feel we'll meet again someday
分(わ)かち合(あ)えた時(とき)が少(すこ)し あるだけで素敵(すてき)
It was beautiful enough to have shared even a little time
 
 
懐(なつ)かしさなど覚(おぼ)えるけど
Though I feel nostalgic
私(わたし)も stranger(とおりすがり)ね
I'm only a passerby
100年(ねん)先(さき)も変(か)わらない場所(ばしょ)
A place that won't change even a hundred years from now
 
 
you're a traveler
You're a traveler
人(ひと)は人(ひと)で傷(きず)ついて慰(なぐさ)めて
People are hurt by others, and comforted by them, too
I'm a stranger
I'm a stranger
何処(どこ)かへ帰(かえ)りたいと願(ねが)う
I hope I can return somewhere
そんな場所(ばしょ)はなくても
Even if no such place exists
柔(やわ)らかな日差(ひざ)しね
The sunlight is so gentle
 
 
ふと切(せつ)なさに触(ふ)れる夕凪(ゆうなぎ)に strangers
When the evening wind stops, I suddenly feel a sadness—strangers
何処(どこ)かへ帰(かえ)りたいと想(おも)う
Longing to return somewhere
止(と)まらぬときの中(なか)
In time that keeps flowing away
すべてが流(なが)れゆく
Everything slowly grows distant
落陽(おちてゆくひ)が綺麗(きれい)...sky...
The sunset is beautiful… the sky…
