Harutte

Lyrics (English translation)

You swept it all away
my weary melancholy
My eyes were stolen by the sprouting grass and flowers

Melting in the lukewarm wind
Stroked by soft shadows
Half-remembered birdsong
announces you

I worried so much
and yet I'm this happy
A cherry petal falls on my shoulder

And still you, all too easily,
drift away in the blink of an eye
By the window where the peach month blooms
I oversleep

I struggled so much
and yet I feel this refreshed
An azalea petal falls to the floor

Once again I'll forget you
and my fingertips will start to go numb with cold
For now, the kindness of now is enough
Let's walk on this carpet of cherry blossoms

You're so unfair, aren't you
You take everything with you
Next time I'll face you properly
and I won't hand over a single thing
