Shonen Jidai

[yuiyoshida]

English:

Boyhood

Summer has passed, thistle flowers sway in the breeze
Whose longing is it that they are lingering around?
Still left in the blue sky
My heart is the scene of summer

I awoke from a dream in the middle of the night
In the deep winter, the windows are closed
It is as what people say
Dreams are after all the result of memory

The summer festival night bonfire
Matches the throbbing of my chest
August is the fireworks in the dream
My heart is the scene of summer

I open my eyes after the dream
The long shadows extend in the night
Towards the sky full of stars
Dreams are after all the result of memory

Summer has passed, thistle flowers sway in the breeze
Whose longing is it that they are lingering around?
August is the fireworks in the dream
My heart is the scene of summer
