A Silent Letter
Nov 2000: 
A Silent Letter English translation
Done by hidoko Matsumoto

Fingertips are already unable to reach
To the faraway night sky
Letting go of the glittering stars
I'll set (them) free

Stay with me  until arriving at sleep
Don't let gentle hands separate from me
Like the time of childhood when I got lost as a kid, isn't it?

Today having opened the window
I heard the footsteps of the season
ahh, your gestures and smiling face are
...My everything

Stay with me  What should I have done?
Unable to see those gentle eyes
Goodbye is...
Like the time of childhood when I got lost as a kid, isn't it?

...I have been thinking about you

Dear my love  Even the faraway sea
Able to cross  In this heart
Even if the days of tempest pass by again, I'm already not scared
Are you feeling  Through the waves, I look up (admire?)

The star's whirlpool is beautiful, isn't it?
Goodbye is...
Like the time of childhood when I got lost as a kid, isn't it?

Thanks to Rei for checking.
