Riria - Happy Promise (Shiawasena Yakusoku)

 While the song I heard lately is about happiness... I wish you, the reader found happiness...

This song is the opening song of Watashino Shiawasena Kekkon (my Happy Marriage). I only watched its pre-launching season 2 episode, I couldn't get myself to watch and wait a week for this series (it is a serious romance that I would have to watch after I finish). But I do love the slow and peaceful feeling of a song. So, here it is: Happy promise. (nb: i will keep going for translation this series ending)

Opening Song

Shiawase na Yakusoku. (幸せな約束。) by Riria. (りりあ。)

桜が咲く季節

Sakura ga saku kisetsu

In the season when cherry blossoms bloom,

1番大切な人が

Ichiban taisetsu na hito ga

The most important person to me

1番近くにいる

Ichiban chikaku ni iru

Is right here by my side.

幸せな約束

Shiawase na yakusoku

A promise filled with happiness,

弱さも愛してる

Yowasa mo aishiteru

Loving even the weakness in me.

あの時願った貴方の側に。いる

Ano toki negatta anata no soba ni. Iru

I wished for this moment—and now, I’m here by your side.

人生逆転こんな事あっていいんですか？

Jinsei gyakuten konna koto atte ii n desu ka?

A twist of fate—do I really deserve this happiness?

何年経っても恋に落ちるわ

Nannen tattemo koi ni ochiru wa

No matter how many years pass, I keep falling for you.

何度でも

Nando demo

Again and again.

あなたもそうでありますように

Anata mo sou de arimasu you ni

I hope you feel the same way too.

私が私になれたのはそう

Watashi ga watashi ni nareta no wa sou

I became who I am today

あなたが居たからで

Anata ga ita kara de

Because you were there for me.

その笑顔もその仕草も

Sono egao mo sono shigusa mo

That smile, those little gestures—

見ていたいよ

Mite itai yo

I just want to keep looking at you.

抱きしめられて

Dakishimerarete

When you hold me close,

あぁ、幸せで

Aa, shiawase de

Ah, I feel so happy.

涙が出るのは

Namida ga deru no wa

Tears fall because—

あなただから

Anata dakara

It’s you.

触れたいのも

Furetai no mo

The only one I long to touch,

触れていいのも

Furete ii no mo

The only one I can touch,

あなただけ

Anata dake

Is you.

優しくしてくれる

Yasashiku shite kureru

The one who treats me so gently,

1番大切な人が

Ichiban taisetsu na hito ga

The most precious person to me,

1番に私を

Ichiban ni watashi o

Always puts me first.

誰にも見つからず

Dare ni mo mitsukarazu

I used to think my place in the world

1人でいることが

Hitori de iru koto ga

Was where no one could find me.

私の居場所だと思っていたの

Watashi no ibasho da to omotteita no

That solitude was my home.

でももう怖くない

Demo mou kowakunai

But I’m not afraid anymore.

生まれ変わっても私がいい

Umarekawatte mo watashi ga ii

Even if I were reborn, I’d still want to be me.

側にいなくても

Soba ni inakute mo

Even when you’re not here,

側にいるみたいで

Soba ni iru mitai de

It still feels like you are.

不思議なの

Fushigi na no

It’s strange, isn’t it?

あなたもそうでありますように

Anata mo sou de arimasu you ni

I hope you feel the same way too.

今こんなにも幸せなのが

Ima konna ni mo shiawase na no ga

Right now, I’m so happy—

少し怖いぐらい

Sukoshi kowai gurai

It almost scares me.

でもあなたの優しい手の温もり

Demo anata no yasashii te no nukumori

But then I feel the warmth of your gentle hands,

今夜は月が綺麗ね

Kon'ya wa tsuki ga kirei ne

And tonight, the moon is beautiful.

私が私になれたのはそう

Watashi ga watashi ni nareta no wa sou

I became myself

あなたが居たからで

Anata ga ita kara de

Because you were there.

その笑顔もその仕草も

Sono egao mo sono shigusa mo

That smile, those gestures—

見ていたいよ

Mite itai yo

I want to see them forever.

2人はこれからも

Futari wa korekara mo

From now on, the two of us

寄り添いあって

Yorisoiatte

Will stay close, side by side.

ずっとこのままがいいの

Zutto kono mama ga ii no

I just want things to stay this way.

これがシンデレラストーリー

Kore ga shinderera sutoorii

This is our Cinderella story.

そんな幸せな約束。

Sonna shiawase na yakusoku.

A promise of happiness—forever.
