"Maison Ikkoku" ending theme
mishiranu machi no touriame ano hi no kimi ha
nureta HIIRU wo kinishiteta
osanasa kakushita yokogao itsuka kawashita
kotoba wo ima mo omoidaseru
A passing shower in an unfamiliar town. On that day, you
were troubled by your drenched heels.
Childishness hidden in your face's profile.
The words we exchanged one day, even now I remember.
* hajime kara SHINEMA kanji-sasete
kimi ga sasayaku shizuka-na RASUTO SHIIN
From the beginning, cinema... makes me feel moved.
You whisper to me... (at) the quiet final scene.
kakaeta hadaka no tsuma saki kyou ha chiisaku
yurashite bon'yari miteta kedo
Holding your bare toes in your hands,
although today you idly watch them wiggling a little.
sukoshi dake kanashii hito [kanji: onna] wo enjitai nara
makuai ni ikaga? boku no love song for you
If you want to play the part of one who's just a little unhappy,
how about in the intermission, my love song for you?
* Repeat
tasogare matsu dake no gogo no hamabe de futari
wasure-kaketa SUTEPPU de
tadotta mijikai kioku ni kasanaru SUTOORII
makugire shirasete nami ga sarau yo
A couple just waiting for the twilight in an afternoon at the beach,
dancing to almost-forgotten steps,
brief remembrances which the story overlaps.
Making the end [lit. fall of the curtain] known,
the waves wash it away.
* Repeat
saigo made SHINEMA mi wo makaseta
tsukuriwarai no KATTO de sayonara
Until the conclusion, cinema... I submit myself to you.
With a cut at a forced laugh/feigned smile, goodbye.
* Repeat
