J-Friends Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

この街に今年もまた
鐘の音(ね)が響く
足早に過ぎ去ってく
カレンダー見つめてた
曇り空が晴れてくように
気づけばそこに君がいた
「ありがとう」って伝えたくて
音もなく舞い降りてた奇跡

新しい時代(とき)が近づくから
離れずにこうしていようよ
愛する人も知らない人も
笑顔交わす
Can you feel this Christmas?

降り積もる雪がそっと
景色変えていく
おだやかによみがえってく
幼い日の歓び
何処にいてもこの温もり
君へと届きますように
痛いくらいこの想いは
「悲しみ消えゆく
未来(あした)になれ」
見上げた瞳(め)に映るこの空は
ひそやかな光に溢れて
僕達を優しく見つめてる
この時よ
A very merry Christmas
merry Christmas
merry Christmas

光放つ小さな地球(ほし)
世界が近くなるこの日
数えきれない出逢いの中
きっと誰かのプレゼントになる
いつの日かすべてが許し合い
境界線を溶かしていく
一つになること願いながら
世界が歌うよ
In this Christmas
新しい時代(とき)が近づくから
離れずにこうしていようよ
愛する人も知らない人も
笑顔交わす
Can you feel this Christmas?
merry Christmas
merry Christmas

Can you feel this Christmas?
Can you feel this Christmas?

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of J-Friends' "Can You Feel This Christmas?" is a heartwarming tribute to the spirit of Christmas and the joy that it brings. The song starts with the familiar sound of the bells, which marks the arrival of yet another Christmas season. The singer, who seems to have been lost in thought, is suddenly reminded of the beauty of the season by the sight of a loved one. The singer expresses this feeling of gratitude by saying "Arigatou" or "thank you" which is intended to be said so that it can be communicated. Suddenly, a miracle occurs as if falling silently from the heavens, and as the lyrics say, "the soundless miracle descends."

The lyrics also describe the change in the scenery brought by the snow, which brings to life the joyful memories of one's childhood. The pleasant feeling of warmth that accompanies the winter season is something the singer wishes to communicate to the loved ones far away so that they can experience it too. The song then goes on to describe how in this season, the world comes together, and people are kinder to one another. Through the many encounters one has during this season, we hope to give gifts to others which makes it a present for the giver more than the receiver. The song's final plea is for everyone to feel the essence of Christmas and be with someone they love this holiday time. With these words, J-Friends invites you to join them in celebrating the festivities by experiencing the magic of Christmas.
