Song lyrics

Just for the fun of it ... here are the lyrics to one of the songs in my playlist.

Kimi o nosete (Carrying you)
"Tenkuu no Shiro Laputa" ending theme (1986)

ano chiheisen kagayaku no wa
dokoka ni kimi o kakushite iru kara
takusan no hi ga natsukashii no wa
ano doreka hitotsu ni kimi ga iru kara
saa dekake you hitokire no PAN
NAIFU RAMPU kaban ni tsumekonde

*tou-san ga nokoshita atsui omoi
kaa-san ga kureta ano manazashi
chikyuu wa mawaru kimi o kakushite
kagayaku hitomi kirameku tomoshibi
chikyuu wa mawaru kimi o nosete
itsuka kitto deau bokura o nosete



The reason the horizon shines
is that somewhere it's hiding you.
The reason I long for the many lights
is that you are there in one of them.
So, I set out, with a slice of bread,
a knife, a lamp, stuffed in a bag.

*Father left me his burning desire.
Mother gave me her eyes.
The earth turns, hiding you.
Shining eyes, twinkling lights.
The earth turns, carrying you,
carrying us both who'll surely meet.

* Repeat
