Hitotsubu Meaning & Lyrics (Wacci)
橋口洋平 pens a line that says, ‘These tears let me see the scenery deep within my heart.’ The songwriter describes tears as drops marking goodbye, memories, and love. The performer uses rain as a metaphor for washing away pain, making the emotions even more relatable.
Yoku taeta watashi anata no mae deI held it together well, standing right there in front of you,
Kobosanaide irareta hazusure that I could keep these tears from spilling out.
Hontou no kimochi futa wo shita mamaKeeping a tight lid on my true feelings the whole time,
Yugameta egao de norikoetaI made it through with a smile that was strained and twisted.
Hitori oodoori no kageAlone now in the shadows of the main street,
Suunenburi ni watashi wa sunao ni narufor the first time in years, I can finally be honest with myself.
Hitotsubu wa sayonara ni hitotsubu wa omoide ni hitotsubu wa sabishisa ni hitotsubu wa koukai niOne drop for the goodbye, one for the memories, one for the loneliness, and one for the regret.
Namida kara shirasareru kokoro no oku no keshikiThese tears let me see the scenery deep within my heart,
Anata wo anata wo hontou ni suki dattan daand I realize just how much, how much I truly loved you.
Yoku ieta watashi nagasarenaideI did well to say it, without getting swept away by emotion,
Jibun no mirai mamoreta hazubelieving I had managed to protect my own future.
Sonna ki ga shiteta sou tsubuyaitaThat’s how it felt, or so I whispered to myself,
Anata no egao ga kanashikutebecause seeing your smile was just too sad to bear.
Fui ni kitaidoori no ameSuddenly, the rain begins to fall just as I expected,
Tokete usumareba hora wasuresaseteand if it dissolves and dilutes everything, maybe it’ll help me forget.
Hitotsubu wa yasashisa ni hitotsubu wa nukumori ni hitotsubu wa kawaige ni hitotsubu wa yowasa niOne drop for your kindness, one for the warmth, one for your charm, and one for my weakness.
Namida kara tashikameru kokoro ga ugoita atoThrough these tears, I confirm the traces of how my heart moved,
Anata wo anata wo hontou ni aishite itan darealizing just how much, how much I truly loved you.
Waratte ite hoshikute aenai no ga kowakuteI wanted you to keep smiling, and I was scared of not seeing you,
Aatomawashi ni shita kanjou ga retsu ni naruso the feelings I put off have formed a long, waiting line.
Tsuzuite yuku dake ga koi janai nda toRealizing that love isn’t just about keeping things going,
Sugatta kotae wo dakishimenagaraI embrace the answer I so desperately clung to.
Hitotsubu ga itoshikuteAnd a single drop feels so incredibly precious.
Hitotsubu wa sayonara ni hitotsubu wa omoide ni hitotsubu wa tadashisa ni hitotsubu wa korekara niOne drop for the goodbye, one for the memories, one for doing what was right, and one for the future.
Namida kara shirasareru kokoro no oku no keshikiThese tears let me see the scenery deep within my heart,
Anata wo anata wo hontou ni suki dattan darealizing just how much, how much I truly loved you.
Konnan ni suki dattan daI really loved you this much.
The translation of ‘Hitotsubu’ lyrics shows how love lingers even after parting ways. Wacci delivers a Japanese track that connects deeply with anyone who has held back their tears.
