冬の約束 (Fuyu no yakusoku) – Winter’s promise
from Juunengo kono ki no shita de single.
——
Numerous seasons have passed since our meeting
We’ve been together so long it’s impossible to count the days
Days when we disagreed over trivial things, when I sobbed
Even those times are so beloved now… Beloved…
I wonder if my Papa and my Mama had such a meeting too
Slowly letting go of their guiding arms, I joined hands with you
“I love you” Even now
That hasn’t changed even a bit since we met
From now on, these warm feelings
Let’s create them together
During hard times, you stayed by me, not saying a word
We watched the changing city and this sky together
Days when I was stubborn, too selfish, only picking fights
Your large gentle arms embrace me with forgiveness
“I love you” Even now
That won’t change even a bit since we met
My tears make it hard for me to speak
But thank you for everything
“I love you” Even now
I want to walk on with these unchanging feelings
Surely it won’t be a smooth journey
But together, we can overcome it
My tears make it hard for me to speak
But I’m glad I met you
Because I believe, I’m stronger than anyone else
That won’t change even a bit since we met
Please stay with me no matter what
That winter when we promised our love
