Japanese | Romaji | English |
いつか人は死ぬ それだけが僕の脳髄に | itsuka hito wa shinu sore dake ga boku no nouzui ni | People die someday, That’s the only thought running rampant in my head |
蔓延ってカビになっていますが | habikotte kabi ni natte imasu ga | Festering and turning into mould, but |
この度特効薬が選ばれました | kono tabi tokkouyaku ga erabaremashita | This time, I chose a magic medicine |
性欲と食欲と睡眠と金 | seiyoku to shokuyoku to suimin to kane | Lust and hunger and sleep and wealth |
憎しみとか全部忘れました | nikushimi toka zenbu wasuremashita | Things like hatred, I’ve forgotten them all |
悲しみとか全部捨てました | kanashimi toka zenbu sutemashita | Things like sorrow, I’ve thrown them all away |
思い出すことは微かにありますが | omoidasu koto wa kasuka ni arimasu ga | I still have hazy memories left, but |
僕はもう大人になりました | boku wa mou otona ni narimashita | I’ve already become an adult |
生きる意味は | ikiru imi wa | Living, in itself, |
それなりにあるし | sore nari ni arushi | has meaning |
死んでしまうときに | shinde shimau toki ni | And when I finally die, |
死ねばいい話だろう | shineba ii hanashi darou | I should die, right? |
必死に働いて金を稼いで | hisshi ni hataraite kane o kaseide | Working myself to death, earning money, |
過去は許されたのに | kako wa yurusareta no ni | The past has been forgiven, but |
人生発展途上の僕らは | jinsei hattentojou no bokura wa | As we proceed on our paths of life |
常識の芽生えに戸惑ってばかり | joushiki no mebae ni tomadotte bakari | We’re full of bewilderment at our budding common sense |
梅雨は明けて日々は乾き | tsuyu wa akete hibi wa kawaki | The tsuyu[1] has passed, the days are dry |
そのすべてに君がいる | sono subete ni kimi ga iru | In all of them, you’re there |
鬼灯は爆ぜて | houzuki wa hazete | The hozuki[2] burst open, |
獣たちは旅をする | kemonotachi wa tabi o suru | and the beasts[3] are on their journey |
初夏 | shoka | At the start of summer, |
未完の蜘蛛の囲が絡まる手で撫でた | mikan no kumo no i ga karamaru te de nadeta | the unfinished spiderwebs come together |
草の匂いを思い出す | kusa no nioi o omoidasu | I remember the smell[4] of the grass we touched with our hands |
晩夏 | banka | At the end of summer, |
散り際思い出す君を | chirigiwa omoidasu kimi o | I remember being on the verge of death |
肌にくしゃみをした | hada nikushami o shita | I sneezed[5] into your skin |
仕事終わりはビールを飲んで | shigoto owari wa biiru o nonde | After work, while drinking beer, |
大団円の映画で夜に染まる | daidan'en no eiga de yoru ni somaru | The movie of the grand finale dyes the night |
友達とそこそこ仲良くやれてる | tomodachi to sokosoko nakayoku yareteru | I get along pretty well with my friends |
干からびる日々の裏で鳴り響く | hikarabiru hibi no ura de narihibiku | The underside of those dried-up days resounds |
なあ どうか恨まないでくれ | naa douka uramanaide kure | Hey, no matter what, please don’t hate me |
あの匂いがいつまでも鼻をくすぐる | ano nioi ga itsumademo hana o kusuguru | That smell will always tickle my nose |
僕は今を生きるんだ | boku wa ima o ikiru nda | I’m living the present |
君はもう死んでいるんだ | kimi wa mou shindeiru nda | You have already died |
生きた証が蜃気楼に踊って | ikita akashi ga shinkirou ni odotte | The proof that you lived is dancing in these mirages |
意味が過ぎ去る日々が | imi ga sugisaru hibi ga | On the days when meaning passes away |
人生満了未遂の僕らには | jinsei manryou misui no bokura ni wa | To us who have attempted to finish this life |
到底生き地獄にしか思えない | toutei iki jigoku ni shika omoenai | In the end, we can’t think of this as anything besides a living hell |
正義ってなんだ? | seigi tte nan da? | What is justice? |
道徳ってなんだ? | doutoku tte nan da? | What are morals? |
日々が流れ今では | hibi ga nagare ima de wa | As the days pass by |
導く側だと獣たちは気づかない | michibiku gawa da to kemonotachi wa kizukanai | The beasts do not notice that they are now the leading side |
さよなら今は | sayonara ima wa | Goodbye; Now, |
憧れがある | akogare ga aru | there’s something I yearn for |
人間らしさが体中に染み付いた | ningen rashisa ga karadajuu ni shimitsuita | My body is stained in humanity |
しかし君の言葉は忘れない | shikashi kimi no kotoba wa wasurenai | Besides, I won’t forget your words |
シアワセの四文字なんてなかった | shiawase no yonmonji nante nakatta | “The five letters in HAPPY don’t exist, |
今となっちゃどうでもいいさ | ima to naccha dou demo ii sa | Nothing matters now that it’s like this.”[6] |
愛がなんだ?夢がなんだ? | ai ga nan da? yume ga nan da? | What can you do with love? What can you do with dreams? |
それが金になるのか? | sore ga kane ni naru no ka? | Can they turn into gold? |
人生発展途上の僕らは | jinsei hattentojou no bokura wa | As we proceed on our paths of life |
正しさと成長を天秤にかける | tadashisa to seichou o tenbin ni kakeru | We weigh justice and growth on the scales |
何度忘れて 何度嘆けど | nando wasurete nando nage kedo | No matter how many times we forget, no matter how many times we lament |
過去は輪廻するから | kako wa rinne suru kara | The past is an endless cycle[7], so |
死ぬとき死ねばいい | shinu toki shineba ii | I'll die when it's time |
ただしかし今は生きたい | tada shikashi ima wa ikitai | But right now, I want to live |
人間らしく | ningen rashiku | Like a human, |
人間らしく | ningen rashiku | like a human |
そう思わないと | sou omowanai to | If I don’t think like that, |
前に進めない | mae ni susumenai | I can’t move forward |
