忍ぶ雨
伍代夏子 Lyrics

人目にふれる 花よりも
I would rather be a flower that grows in the shadows, unnoticed, rather than the center of attention.

影で寄りそう 花がいい
I prefer to stay in the shadows, and the flowers that grow there are much more beautiful.

めぐり逢わせの ふしあわせ
The happiness that came from us meeting each other by chance.

なぜに 私についてくる
I wonder why you follow me.

夢待ち 浮き草 忍ぶ雨
I'm waiting for my dreams, like the water hyacinth hiding in the rain.

世渡り下手な私だけれど
Even though I'm not great at navigating life,

くやんでなんかいません
I'm not jealous of anyone.

あの花だって雨に打たれながら
Even though the flowers are beaten by the rain,

咲く時をじっと待ってる...
They still wait patiently for their time to blossom.

こんな私でよかったら
If you're really okay with someone like me,

いつまでも
Then forever,

そばにおいてください。
Please stay by my side.

あなたを真似て 飲むお酒
When I drink, I try to drink like you.

胸の芯まで しみてくる
It seeps deep into my heart.

雨のすだれの 向こうには
Beyond the curtain of rain,

きっと ふたりの明日がある
I'm sure we have a future together.

さみだれ 浮き草 忍ぶ雨
Even though there's a drizzle, the water hyacinth still hides in the rain.

両手広げたあなたの胸が
Your open arms,

私の暮らす場所...
Are the place where I belong ...

夢のあかりがともる場所
The place where my dream shines.

こんなにしあわせなのに
Even though I'm this happy,

泣くなんておかしいわねぇ...
It's strange that I still cry...

うわべで飾る しあわせは
Surface-level happiness is just that,

しょせん ふたりの身につかぬ
Ultimately it won't really affect us both.

女ざかりの 短さを
The brevity of my womanhood,

あなた その手で抱きしめて
But please embrace me with your hands,

夢待ち 浮き草 忍ぶ雨
And let me wait for my dreams, hidden like the water hyacinth in the rain.
