50年後も (Even After 50 Years)
“If tomorrow morning I was dead, what would you do?”
“Why are you being weird again? How about you just go to sleep?”
Is how you’d answer me, laughing
But like cherry trees blossoming in the days of spring
Will we be laughing like always
Even after 50 years, just like today?
Let’s gather up our love and merge our dreams
As we keep slowly flowing onwards
I will never leave you alone
No matter what happens
I won’t let you escape hearing those little words
That keep our fate sealed
Eventually, after the both of us have died,
I don’t know what the world is going to look like
But take my hand so we don’t stray from each other
“Our love is eternal and you are my courage”
Is what I’ll forever insist on telling you
And I will never leave you alone
No matter what happens
Like great wings that envelop you
Keeping our fate sealed
“If tomorrow morning I was dead, what would you do?”
“You’re still going on with that? Would you just sleep already!”
Is how you’d answer me, laughing
But like fallen leaves fluttering about in the evenings of autumn
Will we wither away as beautifully?
Even after 50 years
Will we be gently laughing, just like today?
