Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
この空が泣き止んだら
君の声で目を覚ます
ちょっと長めの眠りから
君はそっと見守った この背の翼
飛び立つ季節を待って
白い砂浜を見下ろしながら
難しい話はいらない
君が笑ってくれればいい』
そう言って僕に笑いかけた
言葉は必要なかった
居場所はいつもここにあった
太陽が眩しいと つぶやきながら
潤んでく瞳をごまかす
『青い空を共に行こうよ
どこへ辿り着くんだとしても
もしも傷を負ったその時は
僕の翼を君にあげる』
そう言って君は少し泣いた
君はそっと見守った この背の翼
飛び立つ季節を待って
『青い空を共に行こうよ
白い砂浜を見下ろしながら
難しい話はいらない
君が笑ってくれればいい』
『青い空を共に行こうよ
どこへ辿り着くんだとしても
もしも傷を負ったその時は
僕の翼を君にあげる』
そう言って君は少し泣いた
こらえきれずに僕も泣いた
La, la, la, la, la
The lyrics to “Blue Bird” by Ayumi Hamasaki describe the relationship between two people who offer each other comfort and encouragement. The verses use imagery of a cloudy sky and a person wanting to wake up to the sound of another person’s voice. The singer is comforted by the other person’s presence, represented by their “wings” which are waiting for the right season to fly. The chorus speaks of wanting to explore and experience life together, without the need for difficult conversations as long as they make each other laugh. The singer wants to be there for the other person in case they ever get hurt and promises to give them “wings” if need be. The song ends with both individuals in tears, overcome with emotion.

When the gray clouds pass
When the gloomy thoughts or feelings fade away
And this sky stops crying
And the person feels at peace
I wake up to your voice
I feel comforted by your presence
From a slightly longer sleep
From a brief respite from pain or difficulties
You gently watched over my wings on my back
You have always been supportive of who I am and my aspirations
Waiting for the season to take flight
Waiting for the right time to pursue one's dreams
Let's go to the blue sky together
Let's face the future with a positive outlook
While looking down at the white sandy beach
While appreciating the beauty of life
We don't need difficult talks
We don't need to dwell on negativity or problems
As long as you smile for me
As long as you are happy and content, I will be as well
Saying that, you smiled at me
Saying that, you assured me with a warm smile
Words were not necessary
No explanation was needed, it was understood
My place is always here
I feel the sense of belonging and comfort in this moment and place
While muttering that the sun is dazzling
While feeling overwhelmed or blinded by moments of joy and happiness
Trying to hide the moist eyes
Trying to conceal the emotions being experienced
Let's go to the blue sky together
Let's face the future with a positive outlook
No matter where we end up
No matter where life takes us, we will experience it together
If you ever get hurt
If you ever experience pain or hardships
I will lend you my wings
I will be there to support and uplift you
Saying that, you shed a few tears
Saying that, you expressed a moment of vulnerability and sensitivity
You gently watched over my wings on my back
You have always been supportive of who I am and my aspirations
Waiting for the season to take flight
Waiting for the right time to pursue one's dreams
Let's go to the blue sky together
Let's face the future with a positive outlook
While looking down at the white sandy beach
While appreciating the beauty of life
We don't need difficult talks
We don't need to dwell on negativity or problems
As long as you smile for me
As long as you are happy and content, I will be as well
Saying that, you shed a few tears
Saying that, you expressed a moment of vulnerability and sensitivity
Unable to hold back the tears, I cried too
Expressing a shared emotional moment of release and understanding
La, la, la, la, la
An expression of joy and lightheartedness
