[Gatekeepers] Kyou Kara Ashita e (From Today to Tomorrow) by Matsuzawa Yumi

CLASSIC SONG. Beautiful lyrics. This was actually a bit challenging to translate because the whole stanza carries one long meaning, so I'd only get to the whole point of the translation when the stanza ends, forcing me to edit the beginning after. But it's a fun sort of challenge!!

いつまでも忘れない
たくさんのもの　もらったね
空の色　うつして光る　蒼い宝石や
子犬たち　はねまわる　広い庭じゃない
もっともっと　大事なものを

昨日から今日へ　今日から明日（あす）へと
ぼくたちは　歩いて行くよ

夕やけの坂道で
肩車してもらったね
悪いこと叱らずに　ただ　悲しい目をした
遠い日々　うつすカメラ　誰の心にも
きっときっと　あるはずだから

瞳とじ　めくるアルバムの数だけ
ぼくたちは　オトナになるよ

つなくいでく絆　ひとりから　ふたりへ
手と手を　重ねあい
あとから来るキミに
同じもの　渡したいから

昨日から今日へ　今日から明日（あす）へと
ぼくたちは　歩いて行くよ

昨日から今日へ　今日から明日（あす）へと

ぼくたちは　歩いて行くよ

I'll never forget
The many blessings I've received
Not the light the spreading throughout the sky like shining blue jewels
Not the puppies that jump around the vast garden
Something much more precious

That we'll carry from yesterday to today, from today to tomorrow
We'll carry it as we walk forward

The evening hills too
Carry it on piggyback
You don’t scold me for bad actions　You just look disappointed
If you took a picture of those faraway days　In anyone's heart
You'll surely, surely find those memories there, so

Eyes closed　Flipping through old albums
I realize we've become adults now

The bonds that have tied us　From being alone to being together
Our hands pile on top of each other's
Because I want to pass along to you
The same thing you gave to me

That we'll carry from yesterday to today, from today to tomorrow
We'll carry it as walk forward

That we'll carry from yesterday to today, from today to tomorrow

We'll carry it as walk forward
