Tatsuro Yamashita – Zutto Issho Sa

Normally when I watch a Japanese drama, I will skip the ending credits part. But in “Bara no nai Hanaya” I let it played until the end because the song played in the ending credits sequence is very nice to listen! It is the drama theme song call “Zutto Issho sa” written and sang by one of the most influential Japanese musician Tatsuro Yamashita.

“Bara no nai Hanaya” is my most favorite drama of the winter 2008 season. The story is nice and engaging, the relationship is very twisting and interesting. It is not an ordinary getsu 9 love drama. I’m definitely recommend this drama to everyone. “Zutto Issho sa” portrays the look and feel of the drama, and the lyric is beautiful too.

山下達郎 – ずっと一緒さ

作詩：山下達郎
作曲：山下達郎

抱きしめて
しじまの中で
あなたの声を聞かせて

こびりつく
涙を融かして
冬はもうすぐ終わるよ

いくつもの悲しみを
くぐリ抜けたそのあとで
つないだ手の温かさが
全てを知っている

あなたとふたりで
生きて行きたい
それだけで何もいらない
昼も夜も　夢の中まで
ずっと　ずっと　一緒さ

傷付いた
心のかけらを
ひとつ残らずひろって

愛という
不思議なジグソー
つなぐ欠片(ピース)を探すよ

本当の強さは
「ひとりじゃない」って言えること

風の中で寄り添う
花のように
秘めやかに

あなたとふたりで
生きて行けたら
何度でも生まれ変われる
たどリ着いた　僕らの場所で
ずっと　ずっと　一緒さ

あなたとふたりで
生きて行きたい
それだけで何もいらない
時の海に　未来を浮かべ
ずっと　ずっと
ずっと　一緒さ
ずっと　ずっと　一緒さ
ずっと　一緒さ…

English translation (incomplete)

Wrap your arms around me amidst the silence
Let me hear your voice

Melt away these lingering tears
The winter’s almost over

After making it past so much sadness
The warmth from our two hands tells it all

I want to spend the rest of my life with you
That’s all I need, nothing else

Noon or night or in my dreams
Forever, forever… Together

If it means I can spend the rest of my life with you
I’ll change who I am

Entrusting the future to the sea of time
Forever, forever… Together
