Hatsukoi (en inglés)

Hatsukoi
The early summer rain is the color green,
Making me feel so sad… one morning, all alone.
Steeped in love and loneliness,
I was incubating feelings that would never reach you.
Unable to say the words, this first love
Has the heart of a rag doll.
You ran through the courtyard after school,
But I was always searching somewhere far away.
This dream is too shallow… I can’t separate my head from my heart.

The evening glow is the color apricot
As I whistle on my way… heading home, all alone.
I can’t even call out your name…
I was simply staring at this captivated heart.
Unable to say the words, this first love
Has the heart of a rag doll.
Just like dancing flower petals disturbing the water’s surface,
Whenever I had tried to write the word “love”,
I couldn’t stop from shaking.
This dream is too shallow… I can’t separate my head from my heart.
You ran through the courtyard after school,
But I was always searching somewhere far away.
This dream is too shallow… I can’t separate my head from my heart.
