Demo sonnan ja dame
Mou sonnan ja hora
Kokoro wa shinka suru yo

Kotoba ni sureba kiechau kankei nara
Kotoba wo keseba ii ya tte
Omotteta? Osoreteta?
Dakedo are? Nanka chigau kamo
Senri no michi mo ippo kara!
Ishi no you ni katai sonna ishi de
Chiri mo tsumoreba Yamato Nadeshiko?
“Shi” nuki de iya shinu ki de!
[Refrain]
Fuwa fuwari fuwa fuwaru

Renai Circulation English Translation
[Intro]
One, two
[Chorus]
But that’s a no-no
See that’s already
Getting our hearts moving on
Further and further
[Verse 1]
“If the bond is gone soon as it’s put to words
Better not say anything”
Or so I thought, backing away
But eh? Something’s wrong with that
Every long journey begins with one little step!
With a stern determination that is set in stone
Build a pile of garbage up to become Yamato Nadeshiko?
Disregard the “shi”? Nope, disregard my life!
[Refrain]
Fluffily, fluffity
When you call my name
Just that will make me
Go floating in the air
Fluffity, fluffily
When you show your smile
Just that will make me
Feel so happy I float up, to the moon
[Pre-Chorus]
Dear god, thank you
Even if it’s just destiny pulling a prank on me
I’m so glad of the fact that
We both had met
[Chorus]
But that’s a no-no
See that’s already
Getting our hearts moving on
Further and further
Yup that’s a no-go
Hey that’s a bit too early
Don’t take your eyes off me
Never and ever
[Verse 2]
The more of you in me, and that my existence in you
I know that I’m not as big as you
But I know, but in this same moment
I feel that we share the same moment
If all the dust settles, I’ll be a Yamato Nadeshiko!
For short? If the dust settles, it’s Yamato Nadeshiko!
[Refrain]
Swooningly, swoonity
When I look at you
Just that will make me
Daze to your radiance
Swoonity, swooningly
When I think of you
Just that will make me
Melt to the ground
[Pre-Chorus]
Dear God, thank you
Even if it’s just destiny pulling a prank on me
I’m so glad of the fact that
We both had met
[Interlude]
The season of love is a zealous circulation
The feeling of love is a zealous circulation
The eye in love is a zealous circulation
The maiden in love is a zealous circulation
[Bridge]
Fluffily, fluffity
When you call my name
Just that will make me
Go floating in the air
Fluffity, fluffily
When you show your smile
Just that will make me
Feel so happy
[Pre-Chorus]
Dear God, thank you
Even if it’s just destiny pulling a prank on me
I’m so glad of the fact that
We both had met
[Chorus]
But that’s a no-no
See that’s already
Getting our hearts moving on
Further and further
Yup that’s a no-go
Hey that’s a bit too early
Don’t take your eyes off me
Never and ever
