春は風に乗って 種をまき散らす Spring rides the wind, scattering seeds far and wide. 知らない土を踏んで どこまでも走る Treading on unknown soil, running endlessly. まだ見ぬ地平線が 輝いて見えて The unseen horizon appears so bright and shining. とにかく前へ前へ 息もきれぎれに Always moving forward, breathless and determined. (何も怖くなかった) (I was afraid of nothing) (青すぎる空だけが) (Only the sky was too blue) 春よ 急ぐな とは言わない I won't tell Spring not to hurry. その速さが 世界を動かすから Because that speed is what moves the world. 秋よ 焦るな とも言わない I won't tell Autumn not to be anxious. その深さが 道を照らすから Because that depth is what lights the path. どちらが正しい なんてことはなくて Neither one is more "right" than the other. ただ 季節は巡る それだけでいい The seasons simply turn, and that is all we need. 秋はゆっくり歩く 落ち葉を踏みながら Autumn walks slowly, stepping through fallen leaves. いくつもの夏越えて わかることがある Having crossed many summers, there are things finally understood. 急がなくていいさ すでに根は張った There's no need to rush, for the roots have already taken hold. 深く静かに実る それでいいんだと Ripening deeply and quietly, and that is enough. 種が実になるまで どれだけの雨が要るだろう How much rain is needed before a seed becomes fruit? 実が種になるとき また春が生まれてくる When the fruit becomes a seed, Spring is born once again. 春よ 急ぐな とは言わない I won't tell Spring not to hurry. その速さが 世界を動かすから Because that speed is what moves the world. 秋よ 焦るな とも言わない I won't tell Autumn not to be anxious. その深さが 道を照らすから Because that depth is what lights the path. どちらが正しい なんてことはなくて Neither one is more "right" than the other. ただ 季節は巡る それだけでいい The seasons simply turn, and that is all we need. 春だった日の自分へ To my younger self in Spring: あの無鉄砲さを 誇っていい Be proud of that recklessness. 秋になった自分へ To my current self in Autumn: あの積み重ねは 消えていない Those layers of time have not faded. どの季節にいても 学ぶことは終わらない No matter which season you are in, the learning never ends.
