Aozora (Blue Sky)

Ano umi dokomademo aokatta tokumade

Ano michi dokomademo tsuzuiteta massuguni

    That sea went on forever, into the blue distance

    That road went on forever, continuing straight ahead

Ichiban hayaku sunaoni warattamono gachi

Ichiban sukina anohito waratteru

    The person who sincerely laughs first wins

    The person I love most is laughing

Dare yorimo toku e ittemo koko kara mata waratte kureru?

Hitomi wo tojireba futto natsu no nioi

    Even if I were farther away than anyone else, 

    would you still smile for me from here?

    When I close my eyes, 

    suddenly I can smell the scent of a summer day

Ano kawa asonderu futari kiri doro darake

Ano kumo otteiru todoitara shiawase to

    Playing in that river, just the two of us,  

    we were covered in mud

    I'm chasing that cloud... if I reach it, I'll be happy

Ichiban hayaku kono saka nobotta mono gachi

Ichiban sukina ano basho mezashite

    The one who runs up this hill fastest wins

    Aiming for that place we like best

Takusan no omoide ga aru hoka niha nani mo iranai kurai

Hitomi wo tojireba sugu ano umi no nioi

    I have so many memories that 

    I almost don't need anything else

    When I close my eyes, 

    soon I can smell the scent of that sea

Mata natsu ga kuru giniro ni hikaru

Minamo ni utsusu futaribun no kage

    Summer comes again, shining silver

    Our shadows reflected on the surface of the water

Dare yorimo toku he ittemo kokokara mata waratte kureru?

Hitomi wo tojireba futto ano hi no aozora

    Even if I were farther away than anyone else, 

    would you still smile for me from here?

    When I close my eyes, 

    suddenly I can see that day's blue sky
