English translation:

Sayonara…my beloved, precious person.
Tears spill and turn to snow.
Sayonara…to the “me” who cried until yesterday.
Quietly now, close your eyes.
Brushing past my shoulder without ado,
You went to lean against the windowsill.
You were acting brave, yet shy…
I laughed a little,
And compelled, lightly kissed your cheek.
My gaze was riveted to you only
As you walked out of view.

Sayonara…my beloved, precious person.
Tears spill and turn to snow.
Sayonara…to the “me” who cried until yesterday.
Quietly now, close your eyes.

Sitting at a small table together,
There were only our dreams…
Even our uncertain future
Was nothing to fear.
You watched quietly while I looked at you in the new album.
The “you” within it seemed delighted.

Sayonara…my beloved, precious person.
I will always remain thinking of you only.
Sayonara…to the “me” who cried until yesterday.
It’s a quiet night, wouldn’t you say?

Farewell to you, my dear loved one.
Teardrops turn into snowflakes.
Farewell to me, crying 'til yesterday.
Now just close my eyes...
I hugged your shoulder unobtrusively
and leaned against the window.
With a little bit of bashful behavior,
you smiled at me shyly.
Slightly you kissed on my cheek,
I was staring at you,
as you walked away to the door.

So long to you, my precious loved one.
Teardrops turn into snowflakes.
So long to me, grieved 'til yesterday.
Now just close my eyes...

At the smallish table,
we shared our dream together.
Even our future was unable to see for sure,
I was not scared at all.
It was because,
delighted with our first album together,
you seemed so happy looking at it.
And I was just staring at you.

Farewell to you, my dear loved one.
Only my love to you will remain forever.
Farewell to me, crying 'til yesterday.
'Tis one silent night...
