Did you write a letter to yourself?
What did you write in the letter?
How do you feel when you read it in the future/now?
It has been a long time since the last time I was touched by a song…
I cried when I first listened to this track…
手紙 拝啓 ~十五の君へ~
(Tegami haikei jyuugo no kimi e, A letter to 15 years old you)
Was it because the lyrics were describing what I was facing during then?
But, I am still affected by this song…
Is it because what we have to face?
拝啓 この手紙読んでいるあなたは どこで何をしているのだろう
十五の僕には誰にも話せない 悩みの種があるのです
未来の自分に宛てて書く手紙なら
きっと素直に打ち明けられるだろう
今 負けそうで 泣きそうで 消えてしまいそうな僕は
誰の言葉を信じ歩けばいいの？
ひとつしかないこの胸が何度もばらばらに割れて
苦しい中で今を生きている
今を生きている
拝啓 ありがとう 十五のあなたに伝えたい事があるのです
自分とは何でどこへ向かうべきか 問い続ければ見えてくる
荒れた青春の海は厳しいけれど
明日の岸辺へと 夢の舟よ進め
今 負けないで 泣かないで 消えてしまいそうな時は
自分の声を信じ歩けばいいの
大人の僕も傷ついて眠れない夜はあるけど
苦くて甘い今を生きている
人生の全てに意味があるから 恐れずにあなたの夢を育てて
Keep on beliving
負けそうで 泣きそうで 消えてしまいそうな僕は
誰の言葉を信じ歩けばいいの？
ああ 負けないで 泣かないで 消えてしまいそうな時は
自分の声を信じ歩けばいいの
いつの時代も悲しみを避けては通れないけれど
笑顔を見せて 今を生きていこう
今を生きていこう
拝啓 この手紙読んでいるあなたが
幸せな事を願います
Dear you,
Who's reading this letter
Where are you and what are you doing now?
For me who's 15 years old
There are seeds of worries I can't tell anyone
If it's a letter addressed to my future self,
Surely I can confide truly to myself
Now, it seems that I'm about to be defeated and cry
For someone who's seemingly about to disappear
Whose words should I believe in?
This one-and-only heart has been broken so many times
In the midst of this pain, I live the present
Dear you,
Thank you
I have something to tell the 15-year-old you
If you continue asking what and where you should be going
You'll be able to see the answer
The rough seas of youth may be tough
But row your boat of dreams on
Towards the shores of tomorrow
Now, please don't be defeated and please don't shed a tear
During these times when you're seemingly about to disappear
Just believe in your own voice
For me as an adult, there are sleepless nights when I'm hurt
But I'm living the bittersweet present
There's meaning to everything in life
So build your dreams without fear
Keep on believing
Seems like I'm about to be defeated and cry
For someone who's seemingly about to disappear
Whose words should I believe in?
Please don't be defeated and please don't shed a tear
During these times when you're seemingly about to disappear
Just believe in your own voice
No matter era we're in
There's no running away from sorrow
So show your smile, and go on living the present
Go on living the present
Dear you,
Who's reading this letter
I wish you happiness...
Always the best,
By Angela Aki…
