Planeterium

From http://www.channel-ai.com/about771.html
The song by Ai Otsuka was used in Hana Yori Dango 1. Verynice, makes me feel blue. I've read on youtube that the lyrics are meaningful, so I did a search. Beautiful indeed.

夕づく 夜顔出す 消えてく子供の声
Yuutsukuyo kaodasu kieteku kodomo no koe
Evening approaches and the voices of night-smiling children fade
遠く遠く この空のどこかに君はいるんだね
Tooku tooku konosora no dokoka ni kimi ha irun darou
I know that you are somewhere under this sky, far, far away
夏の終わりに二人で抜け出した この公園で見つけた
Natsu no owari ni futari de nukedashita kono kouen de mitsuketa
At summer’s end, we snuck away together. We found this park
あの星座なんだか覚えてる
Ano seiza nandaka oboeteru?
I kind of remember that constellation

会えなくても記憶をたどって
Aenakutemo kioku wo tadotte
Even if I don’t meet you, I can search for memories
同じ幸せを見たいんだ
onaji shiawase wo mitai nda
Of the same sort of happiness.
あの香りと共に 花火がパッと開く
Ano kaori to tomo ni hanabi ga patto hiraku
Both the smell and fireworks going “bang”

行きたいよ君の所へ 今すぐ駆けだして行きたいよ
Ikitai yo kimi no tokoro he ima sugu kakedashite ikitai yo
I want to go to where you are I want to start running there soon
真っ暗で何も見えない
Makkura de nanimo mienai
I can’t see anything in the inky darkness
怖くても大丈夫
kowakutemo daijoubu
Even if I’m scared I’ll be okay
数え綺麗な星空が 今もずっとここにあるんだよ
Kazoekirenai hoshizora ga ima mo zutto koko ni aru nda yo
The wisdom of this clear sky Is here now all the time.
泣かないよ昔君と見た 綺麗な空だったから
Nakanai yo mukashi kimi to mita kirei na sora datta kara
I didn’t cry when I saw you in the past Because the sky was clear.

あの道まで 日々ひとつの音が耳に残る
Ano michi made hibiku kutsu no ne ga mimi ni nokoru
Daily, from that road over there, I can only hear one sound.
大きな自分の影を見つめて思うのでしょう
Ookina jibun no kage wo mitsumete omou no deshou
Maybe you’ll stare at your big shadow.
ちっとも変わらないはずなのに 切ない気持ち膨らんでく
Chittomo kawaranai hazu nanoni setsunai kimochi fukurandeku
It is not in the least expected to change. A sad feeling expands inside you.
どんなに想ったって 君はもういない
Donna ni omottatte kimi ha mou inai
This is the “you’re not there” kind of feeling.

行きたいよ君のそばに 小さくても小さくても
Ikitai yo kimi no soba ni chiisakutemo chiisakutemo
I really want to go and be next to you Even though I am really, really small
一番に君が好きだよ 強くいられる
Ichiban ni kimi ga suki da yo tsuyoku irareru
I love you the most I can be strong
願いを流れ星にそっと唱えてみたけれど
Negai wo nagare boshi ni sotto tonaetemitakeredo
I suddenly try to make a wish on a falling star
泣かないよ届くだろう 綺麗な空に
Nakanai yo todoku darou kirei na sora ni
Maybe I’ll reach the point where I don’t cry In a clear sky.

会えなくても記憶をたどって
Aenakutemo kioku wo tadotte
Even if I'm not with you, I can search for memories
同じ幸せを見たいんだ
onaji shiawase wo mitai nda
Of the same sort of happiness.
あの香りと共に 花火がパッと開く
Ano kaori to tomo ni hanabi ga patto hiraku
Like the smell, together with fireworks going “bang”

行きたいよ君の所へ
Ikitai yo kimi no tokoro he
I want to go to your place (The place that is with you…)
小さな手を握りしめて
chiisana te wo nigirishimete
A small hand clenching yours,
泣きたいよそれはそれは綺麗な空だった
Nakitai yo soreha soreha kireina sora datta
I want to cry; that is a beautiful sky.
願いを流れ星にそっと唱えてみたけれど
Negai wo nagare boshi ni sotto tonaete mitakeredo
I suddenly try to make a wish on a falling star
泣きたいよ届かない想いをこの空に
Nakitai yo todokanai omoi wo kono sora ni...
Under this sky, I don’t think that I want to cry.
