Below, I translated the lyrics of the song 風と町 by Mrs.GREEN APPLE from Japanese to English.
Verse 1
いつか馴染みあるこの景色が
itsuka najimi aru kono keshiki ga
Someday, as this familiar scenery
遷り変わるように
utsurikawaru you ni
changes with time
あなたが残した香りを
anata ga nokoshita kaori o
as I look back fondly
懐かしむように
natsukashimu you ni
on the scent you left behind
苦手なものが
nigatena mono ga
The things I couldn't stand
平気になってさ
heiki ni natte sa
Don't bother me anymore, you know
ちょっぴり寂しさを知る
choppiri sabishisa o shiru
And I learn a little loneliness
どこかでこの手を待ってる
doko ka de kono te o matteru
Is there someone somewhere
人はいるのでしょうか
hito wa iru no deshou ka
Who's waiting for this hand?
Chorus 1
風が誘う
kaze ga sasou
The wind invites me
この町は
kono machi wa
This town
私と誰かを愛で繋いで
watashi to dare ka o ai de tsunaide
Ties me and someone together with love
泣きたくなる日がある事も
nakitakunaru hi ga aru koto mo
And that there are days I want to cry
風はただ知っている

The wind just knows
風は笑う
kaze wa warau
The wind laughs
あの町で

In that town
私は奇跡の愛で生まれて

The wind just knows
Verse 2
いつか別れ在るこの旅路が
itsuka wakare aru kono tabiji ga
This journey, where someday a parting waits
なんの意味を紡いで
nan no imi o tsumuide
What meaning is it weaving?
あなたが生まれた一大事を
anata ga umareta ichidaiji o
The great event of your birth
悦んだあの輪も
yorokonda ano wa mo
And the circle that rejoiced in it too
この血が憶えてる
kono chi ga oboeteru
This blood remembers
揺れた葉の優しさも
yureta ha no yasashisa mo
Both the kindness of the swaying leaves
やり場のない惨たらしさも
yariba no nai mugotarashisa mo
And the cruelty with nowhere to go
ここにもその手を待ってる
koko ni mo sono te o matteru
Here too, waiting for your hand
私が居るのだから
watashi ga iru no da kara
Is me, after all

kaze ga utau
The wind sings
この町で
kono machi de
In this town
私は確かな強さを学んで
watashi wa tashikana tsuyosa o manande
I learned what real strength is
誰しもが持つ 胸のキズも
dare shimo ga motsu mune no kizu mo
Even the scars in our hearts that everyone carries

The wind just knows
