English:
I’m sorry that I’m unable to be honest
I wish I could say things like ‘I love you’
Thank you for giving birth to me
I’m happy I was born as your child
While you worked until late at night everyday
You brought me up by yourself until now
No matter how tired you were, you didn’t complain even once
You always continued to give me a smile
When we fought over trivial things, I immediately ran out of the house
But I couldn’t forget your sad face
When I opened the front door, the usual aroma of dinner
Gently enveloped me
I’m sorry that I’m unable to be honest
I wonder how much your voice saying “Welcome home” has saved me
Thank you for giving birth to me
I’m happy I was born as your child
Back when I was young, when I played around, fell down, and cried
Your warm hand would stroke my head
Before I knew it, you had become smaller than me
I wonder if I can be the one to protect you this time
You always supported me and encouraged me again and again
I wonder just how much kindness I received from you
The first time I confided my dreams to you
Without saying anything, you supported me from behind
I’m sorry that I’m unable to be honest
I wish I could say things like ‘I love you’
Thank you for giving birth to me
I’m happy I was born as your child
Thank you for being here for me
Because of that, I could be myself
Thank you for giving birth to me
I want to express my gratitude to you right now
I’m sorry that I’m unable to be honest
I wish I could say things like ‘I love you’
Thank you for giving birth to me
I’m happy I was born as your child
I’m glad that I’m your daughter, thank you
