Janne Da Arc Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

白い世界が彩づきだし
淡く 淡く 優しい雪は雨にとけて
風が運んだ4月の香は
遠い 遠い 記憶の君を蘇らせる
また僕を立ちどまらせた
春をまとう恋人達
咲き乱れたその景色に
まばたきさえ忘れて
今頃君もどこかで
舞い散る花びらを見て
あの日指きりした
約束思い出してるの?
"そのうちお互いを
忘れる時が来るけれど
少し思い出して、、、、
桜の花を目にしたら、、、、"

まだ咲いてないあのつぼみは
まるで まるで
あの頃にいた二人の様に
道ゆく人波の中 君の姿と重なる
栗色の長い髪に 僕は目を奪われ
まだ子供の様な
あどけない瞳のままで
かけぬけた季節は
あまりにも綺麗すぎて
人を愛する事
君が教えてくれたから
今でも君の笑顔が胸をはなれない

今頃君もどこかで
舞い散る花びらを見て
あの日指きりした
約束思い出してるの?
"そのうちお互いを
忘れる時が来るけれど
少し思い出して、、、、
桜の花を目にしたら、、、、"
まだ子供の様な
あどけない瞳のままで
かけぬけた季節は
あまりにも綺麗すぎて
もう次の雨で
終り告げる花びらを見て
君は新しい季節を
誰かと生きてるの?
けれど覚えていて
君を愛していた事を




約束の言葉、、、
"桜の花を目にしたら、、、"

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Janne Da Arc's song "sakura" describe the bittersweet memories of a past relationship that is invoked upon seeing the cherry blossom trees bloom. The white world begins to be filled with color, and the soft snow melts into rain. The fragrance of April carried by the wind revives the distant memories of the person they used to love. The blooming scenery envelops them entirely, making them forget to even blink. They wonder if the person they used to love is also watching the petals fall at this moment, recalling the promise they made while pointing their fingers on a particular day.


The lyrics continue to express the nostalgic emotions brought on by this season. The singer compares the unopened buds to themselves and the person they loved, both young and innocent, just as they were in the past. The crowded street is reminiscent of when they were walking together, and the color of their hair and eyes is still so vivid in their memory. They reflect on how beautiful the season is, and how they learned to love someone from that person. They cannot forget the smile of the person they loved, and they wonder if that person is living a new life with someone else. Nevertheless, they promise to remember that they once loved each other, a vow triggered by the sight of cherry blossoms every year.
