Chiisana Koi no Uta | Proposal Daisakusen




I really love this song from Proposal Daisakusen! I'd just like to share it here. It's a song by the bank Mongol 800. One of the few Japanese songs that I've taking a liking to.

Lyrics (romaji)

Hiroi uchuu no kazu aru hitotsu
aoi chikyuu no hiroi sekai de
chiisana koi no omoi wa todoku
chiisana shima no anata no moto e

Anata to deai toki wa nagareru
omoi wo kometa tegami mo fueru
itsushika futari tagai ni hibiku
toki ni hageshiku
toki ni setsunaku

Hibiku wa tooku haruka kanata e
yasashii uta wa sekai wo kaeru

Hora anata ni totte daiji na hito hodo
sugu soba ni iru no
tada anata ni dake todoite hoshii
hibike koi no uta
hora hora hora hibike koi no uta

Anata wa kizuku futari wa aruku
kurai michi demo hibi terasu tsuki
nigirishimeta te hanasu koto naku
omoi wa tsuyoku eien chikau

Eien no fuchi kitto boku wa iu
omoi kawarazu onaji kotoba wo
soredemo tarizu namida ni kawari
Yorokobi ni nari kotoba ni dekizu
tada dakishimeru tada dakishimeru

Hora anata ni totte daiji na hito hodo
sugu soba ni iru no
tada anata ni dake todoite hoshii
hibike koi no uta
hora hora hora hibike koi no uta

Yume naraba samenai de yume naraba samenai de
anata to sugoshita toki eien no hoshi to naru

Hora anata ni totte daiji na hito hodo
sugu soba ni iru no
tada anata ni dake todoite hoshii
hibike koi no uta

Hora anata ni totte daiji na hito hodo
sugu soba ni iru no
tada anata ni dake todoite hoshii
hibike koi no uta
hora hora hora hibike koi no uta

English Translation

In this wide universe, there is
A big world in a blue earth
A small memory of love will reach
You who are living in a small island

Time has passed since I met you
The letter with my piled up feelings increases
Without us realising, it is already echoing between us
Sometimes we’re full of intensity,
sometimes we’re full of sadness

These feelings echoes distantly
This gentle love song will change the world

Look, the person who is important to you
Is right beside you
I just want you to receive
This echoing love song
Listen, listen, listen to this echoing love song

You’ve realized even when we walked
In the dark, the moonlight will shine on us
I won’t let go of you hand
I swear that these strong feelings will last for eternity

In the depths of forever, I’ll definitely say
These same words without any change of feelings
Even if it’s still not enough, it’ll change into tears
And it’ll change into joy that I can’t put into words
I’ll just hold you, I’ll just hold you

Look, the person who is important to you
Is right beside you
I just want you to receive
This echoing love song
Listen, listen, listen to this echoing love song

If it’s a dream don’t wake up, if it’s a dream don’t wake up
The time I’ve spent with you will become an everlasting star

Look, the person who is important to you
Is right beside you
I just want you to receive
This echoing love song

Look, the person who is important to you
Is right beside you
I just want you to receive
This echoing love song
Listen, listen, listen to this echoing love song

Everytime | Britney Spears

I'm not a Britney fan, nor do I have anything against her. I guess she belongs to a different genre of music than what I would normally listen to, but I really like this song. I like the tune of the song, and enjoy very much the piano accompaniment.

Everytime Lyrics

Notice me, take my hand
Why are we strangers when
Our love is strong
Why carry on without me

Everytime I try to fly, I fall
Without my wings, I feel so small
I guess I need you, baby
And everytime I see you in my dreams
I see your face, it's haunting me
I guess I need you, baby

I make believe that you are here
It's the only way I see clear
What have I done
You seem to move on easy

And everytime I try to fly, I fall
Without my wings, I feel so small
I guess I need you, baby
And everytime I see you in my dreams
I see your face, you're haunting me
I guess I need you, baby

I may have made it rain
Please forgive me
My weakness caused you pain
And this song's my sorry

At night I pray
That soon your face will fade away

And everytime I try to fly, I fall
Without my wings, I feel so small
I guess I need you, baby
And everytime I see you in my dreams
I see your face, you're haunting me
I guess I need you, baby

Which reminds me, I also like one other song from Britney Spears: Gimme More. But I only like it when it's done by Marie Digby since her version has a more serious tone:
