afuresou na ai, daite (hold, the overflowing love) words: Miura Yoshiko composition: Oda Tetsuro arrangement: Shimizu Nobuyuki translation: pantsu I hold the overflowing love Gazing at the blue shadow It's a little painful, weakening at the touch In the midsummer sunlight memories start to flicker The sun gently touches my lips As I whisper your name It's as if there's magic in the air The waves sweep me away This summer is a little different from last year It was a summer without you I hold the overflowing love Gazing at the blue shadow The invisible wind crosses over the sea Now I feel it throughout my body I don't know anyone here But I'll surely meet new people today Like the sun arising from the horizon Covered in a blue veil...surely I once said "thank you" Because I didn't want to have any regrets I'll be looking straight ahead Because I feel you by my side Engulfed in the sea breeze My tears overflow I hold, the overflowing love Gazing at the blue shadow The songs of the past have a nostalgic aroma I burst forth out of the faint blue [water] I want to let you know how it feels to waver in the wind Even if it's just small wish, gently wrapped in the season It means everything to me
