Arisu by Shojoskip - English Lyrics

Arisu

Song and words by Shojoskip
English translation by me


Arisu calls out
Arisu is filled with joy

She dances with the cherry blossoms in the park
And chases them in the wind
She's just a little tired
So she sprawls out on the lawn
And takes a nap

One day we had a fight
Every day elapsed so slowly
In order to become an adult,
I soon had to depart
As the car was leaving,
I saw your frozen face, unable to move

Time has passed
My dreams have subsided
You are gone
There's nothing else to say

Morning returns
You are now a mere fragment
If we had never met,
Would that be for the best, I wonder?


(Note: "Arisu" can be considered a Japanese version of the Western name "Alice".)


Original:

アリス
呼びかけて
嬉しくて

桜舞う公園で
風の中追いかけ
少しだけ疲れたら
芝生大の字
昼寝して

ある日けんかして
日々は過ぎてゆき
大人になる為に
やがてぼくは離れる
走りさる車から
立ちすくむ君の顔が見えた

時は経ち夢がさめて
きみは消えた
何も言うわず
帰る朝
きみは粉となり
会えなかったことが
よかったのかな
