叱らないでね
山口百恵 Lyrics

The lyrics of the song 叱らないでね (Shikaranaide ne) by 山口百恵 (Momoe Yamaguchi) describe the desire of a girl to be close and intimate with someone she loves. She wants to lie down on his arm and take a nap, to feel the warmth and security of his protection. The setting is a summer beach, with the girl feeling the gentle breeze and the scent of the ocean. She is also feeling vulnerable and emotional, with the slightest gesture or word making her want to cry. But she does not want to be scolded or reprimanded for her feelings towards the person she loves, she just wants to be understood and accepted. She wants to share her thoughts and desires with him, even if they seem selfish or childish.

The second verse continues the theme of the girl's desire to be closer to the person she loves. She wants to play a game of peek-a-boo, hiding her eyes with her hands and feeling the joy of being together with him. She is also feeling the intensity of the summer sun, which makes her skin tingle and glow with excitement. Again, the girl is emotionally sensitive, and even feels the need to playfully tease the person she loves, expressing her feelings of intimacy and closeness.
