Cooking – Yoshioka Yui ♫
The first time I heard the song, I was captivated by the simple yet enchanting melody, as well as simple Japanese lyrics that I could figure out just by listening. And then… I searched for the lyrics translation and it turned out so sweet 🙂
The lyrics is about how a girl cooking for someone she loves although she’s not good at cooking. And she feels happy because the boy said that her cooking is delicious.
Cooking for someone I love is one of my biggest wishes.
I know cooking is not my specialty, but I love to cook on weekends. However, cooking just for myself is not fun. It would be more exciting if I cook for someone else… i.e. when my cousins visited me, cooking became much more fun. And I hope I’ll be able to cook deliciously for others in the future, especially for my family or my future family (?).
Lyrics:
買い物に
出かけるわ
今日はあなたと二人の
食卓になる
テレビを見てる
そのすきにそっと
切り抜いたレシピ覗いて
Let’s cooking
手際よく
パンチェツタ炒めながら
今日は寒かったわねと
労うの
ソファ越しに
ふりむいてる
あなたとおしゃべりする
時間が好き
卵を二つ
よくかき混ぜたら
ひと摘みスパイス加えて
Let’s cooking
新鮮な赤いトマトはそのまま
張り切って見えないように
盛りつけた
本当は
得意じゃないの
でも
あなたに
褒めてもらうの
嬉しくて
恋してる
毎日が変わった
幸せの途中が
一番いい・・・
美味しいよと
目を丸くさせた
あなたが
優し過ぎて
怖くなる
I think while
cooking
English Translation:
I’m going out for shopping
because
Today’s dining table is for me and you
together
we are watching TV
I secretly peeking into
recipe that I’ve been cut out
Let’s cooking
while I’m skilfully frying pancetta
I say “today is cold, isn’t it?”
and thanking him
we turned arround
accross the sofa
I really love the chattering
time with you
I mixed well two eggs
and added a spicy tsumami
Let’s cooking
I leave a fresh red tomato as it is
not to be thought that I stuck in it
I dished up the food
the truth is
this isn’t my speciality
but I’m so happy
because you praised me
every day that I love
has changed
what I like most is
when in the middle of my happiness
when you said “delicious”
and widened your eyes
you’re a really nice person
I become afraid because of that
I think while
cooking
