Japanese

遥かなしまなみ　錆色の凪の海
セピアの雲は流れて　どこへ行く
影絵のきつねを追いかけたあの頃の
夢を今もふところに　西へ行く

ああ　日本のどこかに　私を待ってる人がいる
いい日旅立ち　ふたたびの風の中
今も聞こえるあの日の歌を道連れに

蛍の光は　遠い日の送り火か
小さく見える景色は　陽炎か
出逢いも別れも夕暮れにあずけたら
自分の影を捜しに　西へ行く

ああ　日本のどこかに　私を待ってる人がいる
いい日旅立ち　朝焼けの風の中
今も聞こえるあの日の歌を道連れに

ああ　日本のどこかに　私を待ってる人がいる
いい日旅立ち　憧憬(あこがれ)は風の中
今も聞こえるあの日の歌を道連れに

I chased after a shadow-picture fox; my dreams from those days inside my breast even now – going to the west Oh, where in Japan is the person waiting for me? Departure on a fine day, inside the wind once more I can hear them even now, the songs of those days traveling beside me Is the fireflies’ light the bonfire from those faraway days? And the scenery faintly seen a heat haze shimmering? When I give up both meetings and partings to the twilight I’ll go search for my own shadow – going to the west Oh, where in Japan is the person waiting for me? Departure on a fine day, inside the wind’s morning colors I can hear them even now, the songs of those days traveling beside me Oh, where in Japan is the person waiting for me? Departure on a fine day My yearning is inside the wind I can hear them even now, the songs of those days traveling beside me

Romanized Japanese

Haruka na shimanami
Sabiiro no nagi no umi
Sepia no kumo wa nagarete doko e yuku
Kagee no kitsune o oi kaketa ano goro no
Yume o ima mo futokoro ni nishi e yuku

Aa nihon no dokoka ni
Watashi o matteru hito ga iru
Ii hi tabidachi futa tabi no kaze no naka
Ima mo kikoeru ano hi no uta o michi tsure ni

Hotaru no hikari wa tooi hi no okuribi ka
Chiisaku mieru keshiki wa kagerouka
Deai mo wakare mo yuugure ni azuketara
Jibun no kage o sagashi ni nishi e yuku

Aa nihon no dokoka ni
Watashi o matteru hito ga iru
Ii hi tabidachi asa yake no kaze no naka
Ima mo kikoeru ano hi no uta o michi tsure ni

Aa nihon no dokoka ni
Watashi o matteru hito ga iru
Ii hi tabidachi
Akogare wa kaze no naka
Ima mo kikoeru ano hi no uta o michi tsure ni

English Translation

Faraway island waves
Rust-colored ocean calm
Sepia clouds flow past – where could they be going?
I chased after a shadow-picture fox; my dreams from those days
inside my breast even now – going to the west

Oh, where in Japan
is the person waiting for me?
Departure on a fine day, inside the wind once more
I can hear them even now, the songs of those days traveling beside me

Is the fireflies’ light the bonfire from those faraway days?
And the scenery faintly seen a heat haze shimmering?
When I give up both meetings and partings to the twilight
I’ll go search for my own shadow – going to the west

Oh, where in Japan
is the person waiting for me?
Departure on a fine day, inside the wind’s morning colors
I can hear them even now, the songs of those days traveling beside me

Oh, where in Japan
is the person waiting for me?
Departure on a fine day
My yearning is inside the wind
I can hear them even now, the songs of those days traveling beside me
