えほんEhon

絵本ehonをwo買ったんだkattanda　久々hisabisaのnoことkoto

I bought a picture book — first time in ages

どうしようもなくdoushiyou mo naku懐かしくnatsukashiku思ってomotte

Overcome with an undeniable wave of nostalgia

そういえばsou iebaよくyoku読んだyondaなna　このkono話hanashiはwa

Come to think of it, I used to read this story a lot

思い出omoideのno奥深くokufukakuにni眠っていたnemutteita

It had been sleeping deep within my memories

昔mukashiのno自分jibunにni会いたいaitaiのnoならnara

If you want to meet your past self

現在genzaiのno今imaとto生きようikiyou

Live alongside who you are right now

それ故にsore yue ni何かnanikaをwo

That's why we can find

何かnanika大事にdaiji niなるnaruものmonoがga出来るdekiruからkara

Something that becomes precious to us

人hitoはwa誰かdarekaをwo

That's why people can somehow

何故かnaze ka大事にdaiji ni想うomouことkotoがga出来るdekiruからkara

Come to hold someone dear

絵本ehonをwo開いたんだhiraitanda　あの頃ano koroのnoことkoto

I opened a picture book — back to those days

どうしようもなくdoushiyou mo naku何かnanikaをwo信じてshinjite

Helplessly believing in something

そうだsou da。。覚えているoboeteiruなna。。このkonoページpeejiがga

Right. I remember. This page —

あの時ano tokiのno僕bokuをwo救ったsukutta大切なtaisetsu na処tokoroだda

This is the precious place that saved the me from back then

今imaのno自分jibunにniはwaどうdou映るutsuruのnoかなkana

I wonder how it looks to who I am today

現在genzaiのno僕bokuもmo昔mukashiのno僕bokuだda

The me of today is still the me of back then

それ故にsore yue ni何かnanikaをwo

That's why we can find

何かnanika大事にdaiji ni思うomouことkotoがga出来るdekiruからkara

Something precious to hold onto

人hitoはwa誰かdarekaをwo

That's why people can somehow

何故かnaze ka大事にdaiji ni想うomouことkotoがga出来るdekiruからkara

Come to hold someone dear

でもdemoいつしかitsushika僕bokuはwa何故かnaze ka

But somewhere along the way, somehow —

なぜかnaze ka大事にdaiji niすべきsubekiものmonoをwo忘れていたwasurete itaみたいmitaiだda

It seems I had forgotten what I should have been treasuring

温もりnukumoriにni包まれているtsutsumarete iruのnoはwa

Being wrapped in warmth —

今imaもmo昔mukashiもmo同じonajiだdaよyo

That's the same, now and back then

それ故にsore yue ni何かnanikaをwo

That's why we can find

何かnanika大事にdaiji niなるnaruものmonoがga出来るdekiruからkara

Something that becomes precious to us

人hitoはwa誰かdarekaをwo

That's why people can somehow

何故かnaze ka大事にdaiji ni想うomouことkotoがga出来るdekiruからkara

Come to hold someone dear
