Omoideni Natteyo Lyrics Translation – Unfair Rule

The poet mentions a bare left ring finger, symbolizing lingering memories of a lost love. Kitsutaka Rentarou sings, ‘Please, just become a memory now,’ showing a desire to let go while still cherishing the past.

Hanarete kara doushite iruHow’ve you been since we parted?
Kirai ni natta wake ja nai kara saIt’s not like I’ve come to hate you or anything,
Demo ano hi itta daijoubu ni kimi wabut even though you noticed the “I’m okay” I said that day,
Kizuite ita no ni se wo mukete ita neyou still turned your back on me.
Sotchi wa douHow’s it going over there?
Hanarete kara doushite iruHow’ve you been since we parted?
Kimi ga inai koto ni mo nareta koroJust when I’ve finally gotten used to you being gone,
Demo ano hi kiita daijoubu ni boku waI started looking back at the “I’m okay” I heard from you that day,
Inakunatte kara me wo muketeonly after you’d already disappeared.
Kimi no iu shiawase ni naru tame wa futari no tame ja naiFinding happiness, like you said, isn’t for the sake of the two of us,
Kimi no tame wo omotte hanaretaI left because I was thinking only of what’s best for you.
Watashi to itara fukou ni naru neYou’ll only end up miserable if you stay with me,
Boku yori watashi yori ii hito ga iruso find someone better than me, someone better than I could ever be.
Hontou wa kimi to no shiawase wo erabitakattaTruth is, I really wanted to choose a life of happiness with you,
Wakatte ita no nieven though I knew how it would end.
Furikaeru koto sae dekizu niWithout even being able to look back,
Jikan dake ga susundekuonly time keeps moving forward.
Hontou wa kimi to no shiawase wo erabitakattaTruth is, I really wanted to choose a life of happiness with you,
Doushite konna toki ni kagitte kimi wo kasanete shimau noso why is it at times like these, I can’t help but see your face in everything?
Watashi ni totte wa boku ni totte waFor me, and for you,
Futari ni totte waand for the both of us,
Hanareru ni nareru hou ga ii no ni neit would’ve been better if we could’ve just gotten used to being apart.
Boku ga inakute mo watashi ga inakute moEven without me, and even without you,
Hitori ni natte moeven if we’re all alone,
Futari no hibi wo sagashite shimaimasu you niI hope we’ll always find ourselves searching for the days we spent together.
Hontou wa kimi to no shiawase wo erabitakattaTruth is, I really wanted to choose a life of happiness with you,
Wakatte ita no nieven though I knew how it would end.
Furikaeru koto sae dekizu niWithout even being able to look back,
Jikan dake ga susundekuonly time keeps moving forward.
Hontou wa kimi to no shiawase wo erabitakattaTruth is, I really wanted to choose a life of happiness with you,
Doushite konna toki ni kagitte kimi wo kasanete shimau noso why is it at times like these, I can’t help but see your face in everything?
Mou omoide ni natte yoPlease, just become a memory now.
Futari no tame niFor the sake of the two of us.
Hanarete kara doushite iruHow’ve you been since we parted?
Hidari kusuriyubi wa aita mamaMy left ring finger remains bare,
Demo boku yori motto ii hito ni deatte nebut please, meet someone much better than I am.
Futari wo yukkuri wasureyouLet’s slowly forget about the two of us,
Shiawase ni natte yoand please, just find your happiness.
