ARASHI TRANSLATION

Doko ni Demo Aru Uta どこにでもある唄
Compose & Lyrics: Ninomiya Kazunari

What is correct, what is wrong.
“So it’s okay”. I say things like this.

Because these words would erase me.
This is the thing the most frightful of.

Voice loud with all my might. As if a proof that “I’m here”.
We are not that weak, but not that strong either.
So it’s fine to cry. It’s not a thing to be ashamed of.

Because only people with tomorrow can do this.
Because this is the signal towards tomorrow.

Crying. Searching. Falling. Crying again.
You grow up through this…

Afraid to be hurt.
Refraining from crying all along I became unable to smile.

When I noticed, I became alone, I was in fright.
At that time, you reached out to me.
Your voice was so gentle that it hurt.
I was crying.
Then you said “cryboy”,
and I tried to say “you too”,
and I became eased. I smiled.

Joke and play together as always.
Don’t say things like “it’s nostalgic”.
Clasp the present, the here-and-present…

Look. We breath in, we breath out. We are alive.
We are walking step by step. Just that will be fine…
It’s okay. We’re always here.

So try to open your heart wholly,
so, it’s fine to hold your head high and say

“This is Us”

All along, all along and forever…

※ I think this song very much. I like Nino’s philosophy in it. I like the way Nino narrates. I like the way Nino performed it live. My heartfelt gratitude to Nino’s creation and performance. Happy Birthday Nino. May peace, health, and joy be with You every day, every year, forever.
