Glory of the Snow by Shojoskip - English Lyrics

Glory of the Snow

Song and words by Shojoskip
English Translation by me


A sky without a single cloud
Shadows of birds
Shadows of trees
Snow floating in the air
We follow the footprints on the hill
The dog frolics, too
You laugh, too

The powdery snow is all kicked about
Our eyes meet
And you laugh
Isn't it true that just about everything dies?*
I really cried*

Every day like the last, endlessly repeating
A soft scent signals each one's arrival

The ground is dyed white, yet it feels warm
As I prepare to wake up,
The quiet beauty this season holds,
Stays in the midst of my memory
And you laugh

Every day like the last, endlessly repeating
A soft scent signals each one's arrival


(Note: The two lines with the asterisks beside them were difficult, and I'm not sure they are correct, so please take those with a particularly large grain of salt.)


Original:

空  雲ひとつない
鳥の影   木々の影   雪に浮かぶ
足跡を追って   あの坂道

犬もはしゃぐ   君も笑う

粉雪を蹴散らして
目を合わせて   君と笑う
なにもかもなくなることなんてないんだって

泣いたなんて

また同じような日々が繰り返しやってくる
おとずれを告げる   やわらかな香り

白く染まるその下で   あたためるように
目の覚める準備
持わびたこの季節が
記憶の中   君と笑う

また同じような日々が繰り返しやってくる
おとずれを告げる   やわらかな香り
