Shiki no Uta
Lyrics and Music by ARAKI Toyohisa
Song by SAKAMOTO Kyu

haru o aisuru hito ha
kokoro kiyoki hito
sumire no hana no you na
boku no tomodachi

natsu o aisuru hito ha
kokoroduyoki hito
iwa o kudaku nami no you na
boku no chichioya

aki o aisuru hito ha
kokoro fukaki hito
ai o kataru haine no you na
boku no koibito

fuyu o aisuru hito ha
kokoro hiroki hito
neyuki o tokasu daichi no you na
boku no hahaoya

[shunkashuutou aishi te bokura ha iki te iru
taiyou no hikari abi te ashita no sekai he
la, la, la...].

ENGLISH
Song of Four Seasons
English translation by YAMAGISHI Katsuei

If spring is your favorite time of year,
You surely have a pure heart,
Pure as a violet, smelling so sweetly.
And you're a precious friend of mine.

If summer is your favorite time of year,
You surely have a strong heart,
Strong as an ocean-breaker, dashing so forcefully.
And you're just like my dear dad.

If autumn is your favorite time of year,
You surely have a deep heart,
Deep as a poet like Heine, singing so passionately.　　
And you're a love poet of mine.

If winter is your favorite time of year,
You surely have a big heart,
Big as Mother Earth, thawing the snow so gently,
And you're just like my dear mom.

(*)

[Spring, Summer, Autumn, winter, I live
Glare of the sun's light to the world of tomorrow
La, la, la...].
