中島みゆきさんの『糸』という曲は最高にいいですね!いろんな歌手の人がカバーしているし、カラオケでも良く歌われています。

この名曲で英語の勉強もついでにやっちゃいましょう。

渡辺レベッカさんの英語バージョンがGood❗です。

1、まずは歌唱は日本語で英訳付きを聞きながら歌ってみましょう

Lyrics

Why do we come into each other’s lives?
Maybe we’ll never know, maybe it’s just meant to be
When will we next cross paths with someone new?
Maybe we’ll never know the answer to this mystery

Where have you been ‘til now?
How did you live before?
Under the faraway blue sky
Separate lives are brought together

You are like a vertically-sown thread
I am like a horizontal one
And we weave a tapestry
One whose destiny could be
To wrap around somebody cold
Keeping them warm

Some days we wonder why this life goes on
And so the edge of our tapestry begins to fray
Sometimes we stumble chasing after dreams
Until the future seems out of reach, so far away

“What could this single thread
Ever become?” I said
That was before I realized
What was beyond the scope of my eyes

You are like a vertically-sown thread
I am like a horizontal one
And we weave a tapestry
One whose destiny could be
To cover up somebody’s wound, helping it heal

You are like a vertically-sown thread
I am like a horizontal one
And when finally we cross
With the thread that’s meant for ours
We weave a tapestry they call happiness
