空を飛べたら (sora wo tobetara)
Taeko Ohnuki (大貫 妙子)
If I Could Fly in the Sky
Perch always swaying
Do you like it there?
Especially today, feeling cranky
You're letting me hear your song
I'll leave the cage open, spread your wings
Like a migratory bird, fly away
Lying in the shade of the garden tree
Killing time during the day
By now, up in the oak tree
That person must be laughing at me
Even if I can't find companions in the sky
I won't return here, I'll keep on living
I thought it was a mishearing, still in a dream
A voice calling me, sounding a bit sad
I look puzzled, frowning, kindred spirits
Swaying while singing, my favorite perch
