Again
DAOKO Lyrics

透明な瓶に入った汚い字の手紙を頼りに 先の見えない水の上を ゆっくりとゆっくりと 少女は旅する
Carrying a letter with dirty writing in a transparent bottle, the girl travels slowly on an endless body of water, guided only by hope.

あの人を探して あの人を一目見たい会いたい抱きしめたい 水平線上 これは運命でしょ 待ってるって 言ってくれたからわたしは行くよ
Desperately seeking the person she loves, longing to see, meet, and hug them, the girl embarks on a journey towards the horizon, fueled by the belief that it's fate, inspired by the encouragement of her beloved.

どこだって行くよ明後日の方向だって未来だって遥か彼方千の線の むこうまでかた足失った私の車椅子 押してくれたあなたは此処にはいない 今どこ いますぐとなりに
With determination, the girl with a wheelchair keeps going even if it means going to the farthest corners of tomorrow and into an uncertain future, feeling like she's lost her footing, and searching for someone who pushed her before, but is now nowhere in sight, yearning for them to be there with her now.

ここにあるのは 音と波 泡となリ消えるのは簡単 なんて思った瞬間 あなたの声が聞こえた きがした
Thinking that all that's here are sounds, waves, and bubbles, that everything could easily disappear, the girl suddenly hears the voice of the person she's been searching for, or does she only imagine it?

オールを手に取り 孤独の 先へ あなたが残したコンパス ゆれるたび
Carrying an oar, the girl moves on through loneliness, holding the compass left behind by her beloved, feeling the tremble with every move.

みなもに映る朝焼けがあまりにも鮮やかで私は思わず目を閉じた 君はもう なんてこと考え始めたら きりがないよ 君がいないと わたしは 夢を無くした子供のよう
Dazzled by the vivid sunrise reflected all around, the girl closes her eyes in awe, but then starts thinking that her beloved might be gone for good, and that feeling is unbearable, for without them, she feels like a child whose dreams are shattered.

音のしないアトリエで今日も筆を持つ 連日キャンパスに描く モチーフは義足をつけた女の子 陽だまりのような笑顔で笑ってる あの時負った 汚い傷は気づかぬ内に深刻になっていたらしい
In a silent studio, the girl picks up her brush and continues to paint each day on a canvas themed around a girl with a prosthetic leg, who smiles brilliantly like sunshine. Unbeknownst to her, the girl's old wounds have become more serious.

先は短いと 安静にと医者に言われたが せめて この絵を完成させるまでは 少女と今 今すぐに 想いは日に日に募る一方だ
Despite being advised to rest because her future is limited, at least until she finishes her artwork, the girl and her feelings grow stronger each day.

空はオレンジ やがて暗闇へと ろうそくを頼りに手を動かす 先に見えるのは灯火 連なる光に 期待 の想いで心は踊る
The sky turns orange then fades into darkness, and the girl moves her hands by relying on candlelight, looking ahead to see a beacon of light where she pins her hope, making her heart dance with expectation.

海岸についた あなたは何処に 松葉杖便りに人々に聞いて回る一人の医者が居場 所を知ってるらしい アトリエへと向かう 痛いくらいの鼓動が止まらない あなたにやっと やっとまた 会える
Arriving at a beach wondering where her beloved is, a doctor with a cane who visits people to inquire about their whereabouts seems to know the answer and guides her to their studio. Her heartbeat is so intense it hurts, but she's finally able to see her beloved once again in joyous reunion.

扉を開けるとそこには つめたくなった一人の男と 完成した一枚の少女の絵があった
Upon opening the door, there was a single man who had grown cold, and a painting of a girl that had been completed.
