SIDE-BY-SIDE

Translated Title:: Cherry Blossom Floating*

1.Watching the freshly opened flowers fall,
2.You said, “They were early again this year…”
3.Appearing disappointed as you watched,
4.You looked so beautiful.5.
6.If you could only see me now…
7.I wonder what you’d think,
8.Of me living without you.9.
10.Everybody finds love
11.In the end12.

13.If you were to hear that healthy first cry,
14.Still echoing today amid the city you protected,
15.You’d surely be overjoyed:
16.The footsteps of where we left off…17.
18.Everybody finds love
19.In the end20.
21.I can’t possibly believe I’ll never see you again-
22.I still haven’t managed to tell you anything!
23.I still haven’t managed to tell you anything!24.
25.Watching those freshly opened flowers fall,
26.Were we simply hopeless trees amidst that grove?27.
28.No matter how afraid I may be, I won’t avert my eyes-
29.As long as love remains when everything comes to an end.

*TL Note: The grammar used here alludes to the tradition of tōrō nagashi, also known as "lantern floating", a ceremony honoring the dead.
