母と娘の10,000日 ~未来の扉~ (Haha to musume no ichiman hi ~Mirai no tobira~) – Mother and daughter’s 10,000 days ~ Door to the future~

Sitting in a spot of gentle sunshine, they speak of the past
The curtain billows with the breeze
Its lace a hiding spot for the girl as she smiles teasingly
Your back as you fold the laundry seems small
Though your shoulders used to tower like mountains when my child fists gave you a massage
Shall I give you another now, just like old times?
Even when my name changes tomorrow, the fact that I’m your daughter won’t change
I want to keep these boxed-up memories in my heart
Before I open the door to the future
Stroking the mark of days etched onto the pillar with my finger
I remember how tall you’ve grown
And your proud smile as you looked up at me, and tears well up
Even when your name changes tomorrow, the fact that I’m your mother won’t change
The 10,000 mornings we’ve had as mother and child
Burn bright in my heart
Shining on the door to our family
From the kimono of shichi-go-san to a wedding dress
Picking the flowers of the shifting seasons, take in hand a bouquet the color of hope
Come, take it in hand
Even if I hide my tears tomorrow, the gratitude in my heart won’t be hidden
Even when my name changes tomorrow, our bond will never change
A white canvas dyed with happiness
I’ll walk on without fear, walk on without fear
Through the door to the future
