相合傘
Jitterin’ Jinn Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

昨夜(ゆうべ)は雨降り
雲をうつす水たまり
黄色い長靴表通りではしゃぐよ
お日様と一緒に
チャンスも少しのぞいてる
荷物になるけど
パラソルさげて家を出る
Woo Woo...

傘もささずに走りすぎてく
後ろ姿を見かけた日から
相合傘で歩きたくって
明日のお天気予報
「アメダスは晴れです｡」
てるてる坊主を
2つさかさにつるした
"放課後突然
雨が降り出しますように"
明日はお天気雲一つない星空
Woo Woo...
傘もささずに走りすぎてく
後ろ姿を見かけた日から
相合傘で歩きたくって
帰り道回り道君が通る公園で
六月の雨に光る紫陽花を見つけた
Woo Woo...

傘もささずに走りすぎてく
後ろ姿を見かけた日から
相合傘で歩きたかった

相合傘で歩きたかった
相合傘で歩きたかった

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to JITTERIN' JINN's song 相合傘 tells a story of a person who is reminiscing about the time when they saw someone running in the rain without an umbrella, and how they have been wanting to walk with that person under a shared umbrella ever since. The song captures the feelings of longing, hopefulness, and serendipity that come with chance encounters and missed connections. The lyrics also provide vivid images of rain-soaked streets, yellow rain boots, and blooming hydrangeas, which add to the romantic and wistful tone of the song.

The use of the phrase "相合傘" (ai ai gasa) in the title and chorus of the song is significant because it refers to a traditional Japanese custom of sharing an umbrella with a loved one or a potential romantic partner. The act of walking under one umbrella together symbolizes intimacy, closeness, and protection from the rain. The lyrics of the song suggest that the singer is seeking this kind of connection with the person they saw in the rain, and that the shared umbrella is a metaphor for their desire for emotional closeness.
