Translation of the song 君の隣 artist Aiko

君の隣

English translation

Next to you

真っ暗真っ暗たまらぬ雨と

It's all dark here, and it's raining unbearably hard,

眠れぬここに何度も刺す雷悲しい

and I can't sleep because of the repeated lightning flashes, all of which make me feel sad.

君が遠くで泣いていないか

I'm worried that you're crying in the distance,

今夜は胸が締め付けられる程苦しい

so tonight, I'm in pain, like my heart is being wrung.

枯れずに咲いて自惚れ愛して泣き濡れ刻もう

I'll bloom without wilting, I'll be proud, I'll love and cry, and I'll inscribe them all.

螺旋描いて渦に潜ってふたりになれたら

And I want to draw a spiral, dive into the whirlpool and be alone with you.

いつだって君が好きだと小さく呟けば

At any moment, all I have to do is whisper in a small voice, I love you.

傷跡も消えて行くのもう痛くない

And my scars will disappear. It won't hurt anymore.

雨が止みひかり射すあの瞬間に

When the rain stops and the sunshine comes in,

ねえ隣で歌わせて

Hey, please let me sing next to you.

明日のあさ目が覚めたときに

When I wake up tomorrow morning,

すべてが嘘になってしまわない様に

I don't want it all to disappear as if it were a lie.

焼ける喉に張り付いた欠片

The pieces sticking to my burning throat.

君の言葉を大切に抱きしめるよ

I'll cherish and hold on to the words you gave me.

始まりの音が心掻き乱し戸惑い

The sound of the beginning stirs and confounds my mind.

終わりの音よ聞こえないでと耳を塞いだ

And I covered my ears, not wanting to hear the sound of the end.

両膝にこの手をついて下を向いてしまったら

I have a feeling that once I get my hands on my knees and look down,

もう君を見つけられない様な気がして

I will lose you and never be able to find you again.

空駈ける帚星を見上げ願う

I look up at the shooting star in the sky and wish,

ねえこのままそばにいて

Hey, please be by my side forever.
