Hitomibori Nanda Poem by Jocelyn Dunbar

Hontoo ima no kimochi, shinjirarenai,
Ima no ai yume demo, mita kottowanai,
Naru ka naranai ka wakaranai;
Ima hontoo no kotto jibun demo setsumon
Dekenai, demo hontoo shiawase desu.
Ima nandemo iranai, ima no kimochi shikanai.

Ima no kangai, sorewa mondai janai, ima no
Kimochi dake. Hontoo no kokoro,
Ichiban shiawase ni natta, ima no jinsei,
Jibun kirei kimochi nateru.
Hajimete konna kotto natta.

Ima no hontoo no ai areba mo hontoo
Nakusetai kunai, zembo no jikan anatani
Subani itai, hontoo aishitemasu.

Hajimitte atta toki, omoidashitta anatani,
Watashi no kokoro uta kikoita desu.
Watashino mimi kara kikoimashitta, ai no
Uta kikoita hontooni, ii kimochi datta.

Moshi matta jinsei koretera, zembo anatani agemasu
Shingomade ima no toki kokoro itsumademo.

'Aisheteru' Sorewa anatani hitomibori desu.
