     [Romaji Lyrics]

EAKON irenakutatte
mado wo akereba
yoru no kaze ga fukinukete
suzushii monda yo
tooi sora ni agatta
shishuu mitai na hanabitachi
okurete oto ga kikoete kuru
Uh~
sorekara
futari dainoji ni natteta
nekoronde 10 fun ijou

sou naze da ka
zutto tenjou nagameteta

     [English Translation]

Even if we don't turn on the AC,
if we open the window
the night wind will blow through,
refreshing and cool
There were fireworks rising in
the distant sky like embroidery,
and we can hear their delayed bangs now
Uh~
After that,
the two of us were sprawled out,
lying down more than ten minutes,
absolutely silent
Gazing at the ceiling the whole time
for some reason
My summer dream
was on the tatami...

I add sugar to the barley tea
that's often getting cold,
but though I want to mix it in for you,
it'll just never dissolve
Quietly reach out a finger
I wonder how many of the goldfish in
the design of your yukata are swimming
Uh~
Feeling pleasantly cool on my back,
dampening my hot feelings,
it feels good
Already, I want to sleep
just a bit more as we are
My summer love
is the scent of tatami

After that,
the two of us were sprawled out,
lying down more than ten minutes,
absolutely silent
Gazing at the ceiling the whole time
for some reason
My summer dream
was on the tatami...
