さよならの夏 [Sayounara no Natsu] [English translation]

The misty boat on the shining sea

Whistles good-bye and sails away

If I get off the unsteady platform right now

Maybe I'll meet you in the summer-colored wind

My love, you hear that melody

Shall I sing it up or sing it low?

My love, you see that seagull

Will it fly up or pounce down?

If I try and call out in the twilight

Maybe I'll meet you, my sweetheart*

In the promenade, the trees swayed by the wind

Cast the good-bye shadow

Upon the old chapel's weather vane

Maybe I'll see the summer-colored streets

My love of yesterday, you see those tears

How long will it take till they run dry?

My love of tomorrow, you hear that refrain

It's a never-ending word

If we meet again in the twilight

Maybe you will hold me in your arms
