COLOR OF LOVE

I thought today I would share with you one of the most powerful and moving songs that I have heard in recent years, coupled with one of the most poignant videos I have ever seen.

ARIA - COLOR OF LOVE

The lyrics are below, with my own quick translation. I'm still unfortunately under the weather, and I understand very well but I don't always convey what I understand to others very well. I hope they will give you some idea of how beautiful the lyrics are anyway.


COLOR OF LOVE
words and music by ARIA

Far-off days smile from this sky
Even the tear-stained nights seem precious

Multicoloured canvases
Piled up one by one
Are the greatest gift from you

Pure white sky and
Deep red streets
Melt together this day
As if they would forever continue that way

When I embrace a dream painted as a child
Someone by my side always came to protect me

Multicoloured kindnesses
Met by chance one by one
Now are my greatest treasure

Gentle wind and
Warm love
Meet by chance that day
As if wrapping you in their embrace

Can you see the color of love?
Can you see the color of love?
Can you see the color of love?

Pure white sky and
Deep red streets
Melt together this day
As if they would forever continue that way


COLOR OF LOVE
words and music by ARIA


Toozakaru hibi ga kono sora hohoemu kara
Namida someta yoru sae itoshiku omoeru

Hitotsu hitotsu kasaneta
Irotoridori no CANVAS wa
Anata kara no saikou no okurimono dayo

Masshiroi sora to
Kurenai no machi ga
Tokeau konna hi ga zutto tsudzukimasu you ni

Kodomo no goro egaita yume o dakishimeru toki
Dareka ga soba de itsumo mimamotte kureta

Hitori hitori deaeta
Irotoridori no yasashisa ga
Ima dewa sou nani yori no takaramono dayo

Yawarakai kaze to
Atatakai ai ga
Meguriau sonna hi ga kimi o tsutsumimasu you ni

Can you see the color of love?
Can you see the color of love?
Can you see the color of love?

Masshiroi sora to
Kurenai no machi ga
Tokeau konna hi ga tsudzukimasu you ni…

COLOR OF LOVE
words and music by ARIA

遠ざかる日々がこの空微笑むから
涙染めた夜さえ愛しく想える

ひとつひとつ重ねた
色とりどりのキャンバスは
あなたからの 最高の 贈りものだよ

真っ白い空と
紅の街が
とけ合うこんな日がずっと続きますように

子供の頃描いた夢を抱きしめる時
誰かが傍でいつも見守ってくれた

一人一人出逢えた
色とりどりの優しさが
今ではそう 何よりの 宝ものだよ

やわらかい風と
あたたかい愛が
巡り会うそんな日が君を包みますように

Can you see the color of love?
Can you see the color of love?
Can you see the color of love?

真っ白い空と
紅の街が
とけ合うこんな日が続くように…

(from AS Lyrics)
