Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

別れても別れても心の奥に
いつまでもいつまでも
憶えておいてほしいから

幸せ祈る言葉にかえて
忘れな草をあなたにあなたに

いつの世もいつの世も別れる人と

会う人の会う人の
運命(さだめ)は常にあるものを
ただ泣きぬれて浜辺につんだ
忘れな草をあなたにあなたに

喜びの喜びの涙にくれて
抱(いだ)き合う抱き合う
その日がいつか来るように
二人の愛の思い出そえて

忘れな草をあなたにあなたに
あなたにあなたに

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to 梓みちよ's song "忘れな草をあなたに" express the yearning to hold onto memories of someone even after they've parted ways. The first verse repeats the phrase "even after we've parted, even after we've parted" to emphasize the lingering feelings and memories that remain in the depths of one's heart. The second verse mentions the idea of fate, and how people destined to meet and part ways will always exist. The chorus then speaks to the desire to turn prayers for happiness into the forget-me-not flowers that the song's title refers to, giving them to the person they long to remember. The final verse ends with the hope that two people's memories of love can accompany them until the day they are reunited.
