Moritaka Chisato: Kaze ni fukarete (Blowing in the wind)
Romanized and translated by: mhirano@gpo.kumamoto-u.ac.jp (Makoto Hirano)
==============================================================
"Kaze ni  fuka re te" was released in October in 1993.  It is included in
the album "STEP BY STEP and the best collection "DO THE BEST".
A translation follows the romanized lyric.
(I have a question.  The phrase "ano  sora no  kanata" literally means
"beyond that sky".  I wonder, however, if "beyond that sky" in English
means beyond the atmosphere, into the universe.  So I have translated the
phrase into "beyond that mountains".  Is it O.K.?)


     Kaze ni  fuka re te.

Tooi  tokoro e  iki tai,    dokoka  tooi  tokoro e.
Ano  sora no  kanata e    iki tai na.
Namae mo  shira nai  machi to    namae mo  shira nai  hito.
Ano  sora no  kanata no    dokoka made    it te mi tai na.

Kinou no  yoru wa  gomen nasai.    Wakareru  koto ga  tsuraku te
nai temo  nai temo    namida  tomara nakat ta.
Kinou no  yoru wa  anata no  koto    yuruse nakat ta  watashi wa
hontoni  hontoni    ima wa  wasure tai dake.
Dokoka  tooi  tokoro e    iki tai na.

Kendou  zoi ni  naran da    chiisana  onsen-yado.
Chikaku ni wa  ogawa ga    nagare te  ru.
Oishii  kuuki o  sut te    aoi  sora  miagere ba
AA  sukoshi  genki ni    nareru kana    it te mi tai na.

Tooi  machi nara  anata no  koto    omoide ni  deki-souda wa.
Yukata o  haot te    ehagaki  kako u,  anata ni.
Tooi  machi nara  tsurai  koi mo    kaze ga  hakon de  kure-sou.
Yukkuri  yukkuri    sora ni  kie te  yuku desho u.
Dokoka  tooi  tokoro e    iki tai na.

Kinou no  yoru wa  anata no  koto    yuruse nakat ta  watashi wa
hontoni  hontoni    ima wa  wasure tai dake.
Dokoka  tooi  tokoro e    iki tai na.



     Blown in the Wind.

I want to go far away.
I want to go to somewhere far away.
I want to go to a town where I've never been and to see many strangers.
I want to go to somewhere beyond that mountains.

I'm sorry to have wept heavily last night.
Saying good-bye to you made me so sad that I couldn't stop my tears,
however heavily I had wept.
It was impossible for me to forgive you last night.
Now I wish I could forget you!
I want to go to somewhere far away.

Small inns stand along a prefectural load.
A stream is running beside them.
I'll get refreshed, if I take fresh air and look up at the blue sky.
I want to go to such a rural spa.

In a town far from here, I'll manage to change the love with you into a memory.
I'll write a post card to you wearing a light summer kimono.
In a town far from here, the wind will take the painful love away from me.
My pain will have gradually disappeared into the blue sky.
I want to go to somewhere far away.

It was impossible for me to forgive you last night.
Now I wish I could forget you!
I want to go to somewhere far away.
