Haisai

Lyrics & Composition: Izumi Nakasone

Calling out "Haisai" to each other, it's a scene that's anywhere
but I felt nostalgia in it
It's as if I've been on this island since birth
Everyone's so warm and loving
It means we're all siblings once we meet - Ichariba choodee
Thank you for saying it as if it were obvious, for greeting me
Drink and sing tonight too. The sound of the sanshin echoes all over the island
Even if words aren't conveyed, even if we're separated again

Looking at the sky, feeling you, wrapped in the scent of the sea breeze
Looking at the sea, thinking of you, I'll sing so it reaches far beyond Nirai

You call me out to stop with "Haisai" and that smile of yours
is the smile I'd wanted to see one day
It's as if I've been on this island since birth
I miss you so much
Granny said life should be cherished
"Life is the greatest treasure" Thank you for saying that, for loving me
Drink and sing tonight too. The sound of the sanshin echoes in our souls
Even if words aren't conveyed, if we dance Kachāshī and sing...

Looking at the sky, feeling you, wrapped in the scent of the sea breeze
Looking at the sea, thinking of you, I'll sing so it reaches far beyond Nirai

I'd wanted to see you for so so long
I'd been thinking of you. I'd wanted to see for so long
And I grew to love more, to want to know more
about you, about this island

Looking at the sky, feeling you, wrapped in the scent of the sea breeze
Looking at the sea, thinking of you, I'll sing so it reaches far beyond Nirai

* "Haisai" is Okinawan for "hello". I've opted to keep it as is
HAISAI

Sakushi & Sakkyoku: Izumi Nakasone

HAISAI to yobikakeau doko ni demo aru fuukei ni
Natsukashisa wo kanjita
Marude umarete kara kono shima ni zutto ita you na
Minna ga atatakaku itoshii
Ichido aeba mina kyoudai tte imi sa ICHARIBACHOODEE
Atarimae no you ni itte kurete mukaete kurete arigatou
Kon'ya mo nome ya utae sanshin no oto ga shimajuu ni hibiku
Kotoba wa tsutawaranakutemo mata hanareta to shitemo

Sora wo mite anata kanjite shiokazu no nioi ni tsutsumarete
Umi wo mite anata omotte NIRAI kanata made todoku you ni utau yo

HAISAI to yobitomeru anata no sono egao wa
Itsuka mitai to omotteta egao
Marude umarete kara kono shima ni zutto ita you na
Anata wo natsukashiku kanjiru
Inochi wa taisetsu ni shi nasai to itteta OBAA no kotoba
"Nuchidu takara" itte kurete omotte kurete arigatou
Kon'ya mo nome ya utae sanshin no oto ga shimajuu ni hibiku
Kotoba wa tsutawaranakutemo KACHAASII odori utaeba

Sora wo mite anata kanjite shiokazu no nioi ni tsutsumarete
Umi wo mite anata omotte NIRAI kanata made todoku you ni utau yo

Zutto zutto aitakatta
Zutto omotte ita zutto mite mitakatta
Soshite, motto suki ni natta shitte mitaku natta
Anata ya kono shima wo

Sora wo mite anata kanjite shiokazu no nioi ni tsutsumarete
Umi wo mite anata omotte NIRAI kanata made todoku you ni utau yo
HAISAI
