Kazoku ni Narou yo – Masaharu Fukuyama with FULL lyric and english translation

Original lyric (Japanese lyric)

English translation

「100年ねん経たっても好すきでいてね」
`100-Nen tatte mo sukide ite ne’

みんなの前まえで困こまらせたり
Min’na no mae de komara se tari

それでも隣となりで笑わらってくれて
Soredemo tonari de waratte kurete

選えらんでくれてありがとう
Erande kurete arigatō

どれほど深ふかく信しんじ合あっても
Dorehodo fukaku shinji atte mo

わからないこともあるでしょう
Wakaranai koto mo arudeshou

その孤独こどくと寄より添そい生いきることが
Sono kodoku to yorisoi ikiru koto ga

「愛あいする」ということかもしれないから…
`Aisuru’ to iu koto kamo shirenaikara…

いつかお父とうさんみたいに大大おな背中せなかで
Itsuka otōsan mitai ni ōkina senaka de

いつかお母かあさんみたいに静しずかな優やさしさで
Itsuka okāsan mitai ni shizukana yasashi-sa de

どんなことも超こえてゆける
Don’na koto mo koete yukeru

家族かぞくになろうよ
Kazoku ni narou yo

小ちいさな頃ころは身体しんたいが弱よわくて
Chīsana koro wa karada ga yowakute

すぐに泣ないて甘あまえてたの
Sugu ni naite amae teta no

いつも自分じぶんのことばかり精一杯せいいっぱいで
Itsumo jibun no koto bakari seiippaide

親孝行おやこうこうなんて出来できてないけど
Oyakōkō nante deki tenaikedo

明日あしたのわたしは
Ashita no watashi wa

それほど変かわれないとしても
Sorehodo kawarenai to shite mo

一いち歩ほずつ与あたえられる人ひとから
Ippo zutsu ataerareru hito kara

与あたえる人ひとへかわってゆけたなら
Ataeru hito e kawatte yuketanara

いつかおじいちゃんみたいに無口むくちな強つよさで
Itsuka ojīchan mitai ni mukuchina tsuyo-sa de

いつかおばあちゃんみたいに可か愛わい笑顔えがおで
Itsuka o bāchan mitai ni kawaii egao de

あなたとなら生いきてゆける　そんなふたりになろうよ
Anata tonara ikite yukeru son’na futari ni narou yo

いつかあなたの笑顔えがおによく似にた男おとこのと
Itsuka anatanoegao ni yoku nita otokonoko to

いつかわたしとおなじ泣なきな女おんなのと
Itsuka watashi to onaji nakimushina on’nanoko to

どんなことも超こえてゆける
Don’na koto mo koete yukeru

家族かぞくになろうよ
Kazoku ni narou yo

あなたとなら生いきてゆける
Anata tonara ikite yukeru

しあわせになろうよ
Shiawase ni narou yo

“Even after a hundred years have passed, please continue to like me”

In front of everyone, making it difficult for you

Even so, you smiled for me

Thank you for choosing me

No matter how much we trust each other

There are some things we can’t understand

Because that solitude and need for living intimately (‘yorisoi’ is an adverb to ‘ikiru’ so I think it should be ‘to live intimately’)

Might be what it is to love… (‘aisuru koto kamo shirenaikara’)

Someday, with a wide back like a father

Someday, with the quiet kindess of a mother

Let’s become a family

That will get by whatever happens

When I was young, my body was weak and easily I would cry

All along I only know how to strive for my own self

Tomorrow’s “me”, even if there is not much difference

I hope to step by step from being someone who is always “given”

Slowly become someone who is the “giver”

Someday, with a quiet strength like Grandfather

Someday, with an adorable smile like Grandmother

If it’s with you, I can live on

Let’s become a pair like that

Someday, with a boy who has your smiling face

Someday, with a girl who is a crybaby like me

Let’s become a family

That will get by whatever happens
