STRING

I introduce some songs that I believe very good.
First song is ‘ITO’, which means STRING in English, song by Bank Band (Vo : Kazutoshi SAKURAI (Mr.children)), music and lyrics by Miyuki NAKAJIMA.



A few weeks ago, my friend sung for his bride as the groom at the wedding party.
I love this song's lyrics!
Tears fall.

‘STRING’
‘ITO’

We know nothing why we come across each other.
Naze meguriau no ka wo watashi tachi wa nani mo shiranai.
We don't always know when we come across each other.
Itu meguriau no ka wo watashi tachi wa itsumo shiranai.

Where were you? And were you alive?
Doko ni itano. Ikite kita no.
Faraway under the sky. The two story.
Tooi sora no shita. Hutatsu no monogatari.

A vertical string is you. A horizontal string is me.
Tate no ito wa anata. Yoko no ito wa watashi.
Some day the textile might let someone warm.
Orinasu nuno wa itsuka dareka wo atatame uru kamo shirenai.


A fraying of the vestige of the day when I wonder why to live.
Naze ikite iku no kawo mayotta hi no ato no sasakure.
A fraying of the vestige of the day when I chase a dream.
Yume oikake hashiitte koronda hi no ato no sasakure.

What good will such a string be?
Konna ito ga nanni naruno.
Feeling anxious I trembled in the wind.
Kokoro motonakute hurueteta kaze no naka.

A vertical string is you. A horizontal string is me.
Tate no ito wa anata. Yoko no ito wa watashi.
Some day the textile might heal someone’s hurt.
Orinasu nuno wa ituka dareka no kizu wo kabau kamo shirenai.


A vertical string is you. A horizontal string is me.
Tate no ito wa anata. Yoko no ito wa watashi.
Coming across the other string for you is called basking.
Au beki hito ni deaeru koto wo hito wa shiawase to yobimasu.
