Lyrics[]
帰りそびれた 故郷は
五月の空の 白い雲
汚れを知らぬ 幼子の
まなこに揺れる 母の顔
ほの甘く ほろ苦い
帰りそびれた 故郷は
駅のホームの 片隅で
どれだけ影を 踏んだやら
乗れない汽車を 見送って
どれだけ嘘を ついたやら
わすれもの おとしもの
帰りそびれた 故郷は
親の歳まで 生きたなら
命は草の 露でいい
わずかに煙る 思い出を
薪で燃やせば それでいい
残り火か 木漏れ日か
帰りそびれた 故郷は
帰りそびれた 故郷は
kaerisobireta furusato wa
gogatsu no sora no shiroi kumo
kegare wo shiranu osanago no
manako ni yureru haha no kao
hono amaku horonigai
kaerisobireta furusato wa
eki no HOOMU no katasumi de
dore dake kage wo funda yara
norenai kisha wo miokutte
dore dake uso wo tsuita yara
wasuremono otoshimono
kaerisobireta furusato wa
oya no toshi made ikita nara
inochi wa kusa no tsuyu de ii
wazaku ni kemuru omoide wo
maki de moyaseba sore de ii
nokoribi ka komorebi ka
kaerisobireta furusato wa
kaerisobireta furusato wa
My hometown that it is too late for me to return to
Where white clouds fill the May sky
And a pure-hearted infant
beholds a wavering image of its mother
Bittersweet
My hometown that it is too late for me to return to
How many shadows did I step on
in the corner of the train platform,
seeing off a train I couldn't board?
How many lies did I tell?
Something lost, something forgotten
My hometown that it is too late for me to return to
If I live as long as my parents,
I don't care if life is nothing more than dew on the grass
I'll just burn
The faintly smouldering memories,
are they embers? Are they light through the trees?
My hometown that it is too late for me to return to
My hometown that it is too late for me to return to
