幾十年もの時が流れた
バラにはまだ雫が残っている
私の少女時代を置いてきた
緑の庭に
庭に入り
そして木々を見る
子供のとき　よくここで遊んだ
リスに鳥
小さい妖精たちが
昔　ここで暮らしていた
庭に入り
そして草の上に座る
子供のとき　ここによく座った
つたに苔
たくさんの小さなデイジーが
昔　小道を覆っていた
幾十年もの時が流れた
バラにはまだ雫が残っている
私は思い出すを残しておいた
あの緑の庭に
私は思い出すを残しておいた
あの緑の庭に

Ikujuunen mono toki ga nagareta
Bara ni wa mada shizuku ga nokotte iru
Atashi no shoujo jidai o oite kita
Midori no niwa ni
Niwa ni hairi
Shoshite kiki o miru
Kodomo no toki yoku koko de asonda
Risu ni tori
Chiisai yousei tachi ga
Mukashi koko de kurashite ita
Niwa ni hairi
Soshite kusa no ue ni suwaru
Kodomo no toki koko ni yoku suwatta
Tsuta ni koke
Takusan no chiisa na deijii ga
Mukashi komichi o ootte ita
Ikujuunen mono toki ga nagareta
Bara ni wa mada shizuku ga nokotte iru
Atashi wa omoidasu o nokoshite oita
Ano midori no niwa ni
Atashi wa omoidasu o nokoshite oita
Ano midori no niwa ni

So many years have passed
The dew is still on the roses
I left my childhood
In a garden green
Come in the garden
And look at the trees
I used to play there when I was a child
Squirrels and birds
Little fairies
Settled down there long ago
Come in the garden
And sit on the grass
I used to sit there when I was a child
Ivy and moss
Little daisies
Covered the lane long ago
So many years have passed
The dew is still on the roses
I kept my memories
In that garden greeen
I kept my memories
In that garden greeen
