Romanized Lyrics
Natsukashii tsuugakuro
Hisashiburi Hello again
Ano hi hajimete koishita kimi ga yoko ni iru
Otona ni nante naru ka!
Kodomojimita koto itteta kke
Seifuku kiteinai bokutachi wa nanimono da?
Nagorizakura nakete kuru
Nani wo mitemo subete nanika wo omoidasu
Kaze ni yureru hanabira
Seishun wa attoiuma ni chiru
Sukidatta kimi no koto
Ima demo...
Kyoushitsu no nakamatachi
Doko de haru wo sugosu?
Kaze no tayori yagate todokanaku natta
Otona ni natta ima de wa
Bikashiteirun da ano koro
Juujiro de wakarete mirai wo uwagaki shiyou
Nagorizakura sayonara da
Usubeni no hanabira ga aozora ni matteru
Sorezore no michi e
Kokuhaku wa dekinakatta kedo
Nankai mo furimuita
Graduation
Mou kitto anna ni
Setsunai hibi wa konai darou
Wakasa to wa sugite yuku kisetsu ni kizukanu koto
Mankai no kibou wa doko ni itta no ka?
Nagorioshii hazakura yo
Mune ni saita hana wa itsushika kiete yuku
Rainen mata aou
Seishun wa attoiuma ni chiru
Sukidatta kimi no koto
Ima demo...
English Lyrics
Walking down this nostalgic school road
It’s been so long, Hello again
You, my first love from that day, are right here by my side
"I'll never grow up, no way!"
Did I used to say childish things like that?
Without our uniforms on, just who are we supposed to be?
Lingering cherry blossoms, bringing me to tears
No matter what I see, it reminds me of it all
Petals swaying in the gentle breeze
Our youth scatters in the blink of an eye
I was in love with you back then
And even now...
All our old friends from the classroom
Where are they spending this spring?
The rumors on the wind eventually stopped reaching me
Now that I have become an adult
I'm just glorifying those days gone by
Let's part at this crossroad, and overwrite our future
Lingering cherry blossoms, this is goodbye
Pale pink petals dancing in the blue sky
Heading down our separate paths
I never could tell you how I felt
But I looked back so many times
Graduation
I know that days as bittersweet as those
Will surely never come around again
Youth is not noticing the seasons passing by
Where has that hope in full bloom gone?
So reluctant to part, green leaves on the trees
The flower blooming in my heart eventually fades away
Let’s meet again next year
Our youth scatters in the blink of an eye
I was in love with you back then
And even now...
Japanese Lyrics
懐かしい通学路
久しぶり Hello again
あの日初めて 恋した君が横にいる
大人になんてなるか！
子供じみたこと 言ってたっけ
制服着ていない 僕たちは何者だ？
名残(なご)り桜(ざくら) 泣けて来る
何を見ても全て 何かを思い出す
風に揺れる花びら
青春はあっという間に散る
好きだった 君のこと
今でも…
教室の仲間たち
どこで春を過ごす？
風の便り やがて届かなくなった
大人になった今では
美化しているんだ あの頃
十字路で別れて 未来を上書きしよう
名残り桜 さよならだ
薄紅の花びらが青空に舞ってる
それぞれの道へ
告白はできなかったけど
何回も振り向いた
Graduation
もう きっと あんなに
切ない日々は来ないだろう
若さとは過ぎて行く季節に気づかぬこと
満開の希望はどこに行ったのか？
名残り惜しい 葉桜よ
胸に咲いた花は いつしか消えて行く
来年 また会おう
青春はあっという間に散る
好きだった 君のこと
今でも…
