サクラ色 Sakura-iro
アンジェラアキ Angela Aki
Released in March 2007, this is her 5th single. It is said that Angela Aki made this song from her memories in Washington D.C. So, the river she mentions in the lyrics is actually the Potomac River, which is famous for its cherry blossoms trees planted alongside the river as a token of friendship between Japan and US.
Also, it is unique that she includs her other song's lyrics (Home) into this song.
「ふるさと 心の中で今でも優しく響くよ」
"Furusato kokoro no naka de ima demo yasashiku hibikuyo"
"Hometown, the sound of it still echos softly in my heart"
そんな歌が聴こえる
Sonna uta ga kikoeru
I hear such a song
If you like this Sakura song, I recommend you to check her other songs such as "Home" and "Tegami".
This year, the season for "お花見, Ohanami (cherry blossoms viewing picnic)" has come! This weekend or the next will be the perfect timing for a picnic in Tokyo.
Since Japan is an island country spreading wide in north and south, you can enjoy "桜, Sakura (cherry blossoms)", from March in Okinawa up to May in Hokkaido.
Have a happy "Ohanami" weekend!

川 沿い に 咲いてた サクラ 並木 を
Kawa-zoi ni saiteta sakura namiki wo
Through a line of cherry trees in bloom
共 に 生きて いく と 二人 で 歩いた
Tomo ni ikite iku to futari de aruita
we took a walk along the river and promised to live together
世界 に 飲み 込まれ 吐き 出され ても
Sekai ni nomi-komare haki-dasare temo
Even when we became engulfed and expelled from the world,
ただ そば に いたくて
Tada soba ni itakute
I just wanted to be with you
もっと もっと もっと
motto motto motto
for more and more
時間 の 流れ と 愛 の 狭間 に 落ちて
Jikan no nagare to ai no hazama ni ochite
Fallen into the gap between the passage of time and love
あなた を 失った
Anata wo ushinatta
I lost you
恋しくて 目 を 閉じれば
Koishikute me wo tojireba
When I miss you, I close my eyes
あの 頃 の 二人 が いる
Ano koro no futari ga iru
Then I see the two of us in those days
サクラ 色 の あなた を 忘れない
Sakura-iro no anata wo wasurenai
I won't forget you colored in cherry blossoms
ずっと ずっと ずっと
zutto zutto zutto
forever and ever more
あなた から 離れて 自分 を 知った
Anata kara hanarete jibun wo shitta
When I stand away from you, I came to know myself
夢 に 近づき たくて
Yume ni chikazuki takute
I wanted to get closer to my dream
もっと もっと もっと
motto motto motto
否定 の 言葉 に 押し つぶされて も
Hitei no kotoba ni oshi-tsubusarete mo
Even when I was crashed by the words of denial,
這い上がり 戦い 続けた
Haiagari tatakai tuzuketa
I got myself back on my feet again and continued to fight
苦しくて 目 を 閉じれば
Kurushikute me wo tojireba
When I feel pain, I close my eyes
あの 頃 の 自分 が いる
Ano koro no jibun ga iru
Then I see myself in those days
サクラ 色 の 私 を 忘れない
Sakura-iro no watashi wo wasurenai
I won't forget myself colored in cherry blossoms
ずっと ずっと ずっと
zutto zutto zutto
forever and ever more
「ふるさと 心 の 中 で 今 でも 優しく 響くよ」
"Furusato kokoro no naka de ima demo yasashiku hibikuyo"
"Hometown, the sound of it still echos softly in my heart"

サクラ 色 の あなた の こと を
Sakura-iro no anata no koto wo
You, colored in cherry blossoms
サクラ 色 の わたし の こと を
Sakura-iro no watashi no koto wo
Me, colored in cherry blossoms
サクラ 色 の 時代 を 忘れない
Sakura-iro no jidai wo wasurenai
I won't forget those days colored in cherry blossoms
