嬉しいureshii事kotoがgaあったatta時tokiにni

When something good happens

誰かdarekaにni言いたくiitakuなるnaruのnoはwa

The reason I want to tell someone about it

自分jibunよりもyori mo喜んでくれるyorokondekureru人hitoにni

Is because I was raised by someone

育ててsodateteもらったmorattaからkaraなんだろうなnandaro na

Who was happier about it than I was

身体karadaがgaだるくdarukuなったnatta時tokiはwa

When my body feels heavy

確かtashika生姜shougaとtoハチミツhachimitsuでde

It was ginger and honey, if I remember right

口うるさくてkuchiurusakute嫌でもiya demo思い出すomoidasuよyo

You were so nagging, but I can't help remembering

離れていてもhanarete itemo守られているんだmamorareteirunda

Even far apart, I'm still being looked after

あなたanataはwaずっとzutto手teをwo振ってfutte笑ってくれたwarattekureta

You always waved and smiled at me

帰り道kaerimichi迷わないmayowanaiようにyou ni

So I wouldn't lose my way home

もしmoshi前maeをwo向けなくmukenakuなったnatta時tokiもmo

Even when I couldn't face forward anymore

振り返ればfurikaerebaいつもitsumo見えるmieruようにyou ni

So that when I looked back, you'd always be there

愛されているaisareteiru事kotoにni

The fact that I am loved

ちゃんとchanto気付いているkizuiteiru事koto

And that I know it, truly

いつかitsuka歌utaにniしようshiyou

Someday I'll put it in a song

思い上がってomoiagatte街machiをwo出てdete

I got full of myself and left town

思い知ったomoishitta挙句ageku　途方tohouにni暮れてkurete

Learned my lesson the hard way, lost and hopeless

追い越していくoikoshiteiku人hitoをwo恨んでみたりしてurande mitari shite

Even tried resenting the people passing me by

それでもsoredemoいつかitsuka自分jibunのno事koto

But still, so that someday I could

誇れるhokoreruようにyou ni　そしてsoshiteそのsono時tokiはwa

Be proud of who I am — and when that day comes

誇らしくhokorashiku思ってomotteもらえるmoraeruようにyou ni

So that you could feel proud of me too

膝hizaすりむいてsurimuite帰ったkaetta日hiはwa

The day I came home with scraped knees

なぜかnazeka僕bokuよりyori痛そうitasouでde

You somehow looked more hurt than I did

そんなsonna記憶kiokuがga形katachiをwo変えkae今imaもmo

That kind of memory, taking different shapes, even now

離れていてもhanarete itemo守られているんだmamorareteirunda

Even far apart, I'm still being looked after
