Lyrics

国境の長いトンネルを抜けると雪国は
– kokkyou no nagai tonneru wo nukeru to yukiguni wa
底冷えの夜の静けさを白く帯びている
– sokobie no yoru no shizukesa wo shiroku obite iru
雪景の古い街並みを横目に雪国は
– sekkei no furui machinami wo yokome ni yukiguni wa
貴方との春の思い出がただ蔓延っている
– anata to no haru no omoide ga tada habikotte iru

僕の躊躇いが月に被さってまるで海の底ね
– boku no tamerai ga tsuki ni kabusatte maru de umi no soko ne
ぼうと座って水面に映った僕らを見ている
– booto suwatte minamo ni utsutta bokura wo mite iru

食卓と長い小節を跨いで雪国は
– shokutaku to nagai shousetsu wo mataide yukiguni wa
花韮の花の静けさをただ嗅ぎ取っている
– hananira no hana no shizukesa wo tada kagitotte iru

貴方の涙風に舞い散ってまるで春の中ね
– anata no namida kaze ni maichitte maru de haru no naka ne
ぼうと座ってスープに映った僕らを見ている
– booto suwatte suupu ni utsutta bokura wo mite iru

僕らの憂いが日々日々積もってまるで雪の国ね
– bokura no urei ga hibi hibi tsumotte maru de yuki no kuni ne
どうか躊躇って 貴方も想って
– douka tameratte anata mo omotte
雪が溶けるまで
– yuki ga tokeru made
愛が解けるまで
– ai ga tokeru made

国境の長いトンネルを抜けると僕たちは
– kokkyou no nagai tonneru wo nukeru to boku tachi wa
底冷えの夜の静けさを白く帯びていた
– sokobie no yoru no shizukesa wo shiroku obite ita

English Translation

Coming out of the long tunnel on the border, we find the snow country
taking on the stillness of a bone-chilly night to lay white.
Casting a sidelong glance at the snowy old townscape,
the snow county is just imbued with the memory of the springtime with you.

My hesitation covers the moon and it’s dark like the bottom of the sea.
Sitting in a daze, we’re looking at our own reflections on the surface of the water.

Stretching over a dining table and a long bar, the snow country is
just catching the scent of the stillness of spring star flowers.

Your tears scatter in the wind and it’s like we’re in the middle of the spring.
Sitting in a daze, we’re looking at our own reflections on the surface of the soup.

Our melancholy piles up day after day and it looks like the snow country.
I beg you to hesitate. I hope you care too.
Until the snow melts.
Until the love is solved.

Coming out of the long tunnel on the border, we found ourselves
taking on the stillness of a bone-chilly night and tinged with white.
