Present Lyrics Translation Ini | THE WINTER MAGIC
808MALC tells of a quiet winter night. Powder snow falls while the speaker sighs alone. The translation offers the line ‘I’ll hold you tight and keep you warm.’ Winter details like a silver sky and cold breath build a cozy atmosphere.
Kono machi ni mo konya konayuki ga furu rashii neThey say powder snow’s gonna fall in this town tonight too
Hashaginagara sou hanasu kimi eTo you, as you talk like that all excitedly
Tsutaetai koto ga aru da nante ienakuteI couldn’t even say I’ve got something to tell you,
Hitori tsuku tameikiJust letting out a sigh all by myself.
