透明夏
Lyrics
昼前の旅の今日の片隅でさ
In a corner of today, a journey before noon,
描いた地図に沿って歩く
I walk along the map I drew
舞う軽い羽に残る夏の音は
The sound of summer left on a light dancing feather
ずっと胸の奥に隠してまた繋ぐの
I keep it hidden in my chest, and link it once more
覆う風の色にふわり染まると
When I'm softly dyed in the color of the covering wind
変わる今に唄いたくて
I want to sing of this changing moment
写真の中で遠く笑うように
Like smiling far away inside a photograph,
そっと独り笛をとって目を閉じてみた
I quietly took up the harmonica and closed my eyes
潤む透明夏 願う今をさ
The moist, transparent summer—this wishing moment,
無数に浮かべては
I float it up countless times
一人風に吹かれて想う明日(あす)に
Alone, blown by the wind, thinking of tomorrow
少し寄り掛かりたくて
I want to lean on it a little
滲む四分間 揺れる僕の背
The blurring four minutes—my swaying back
ふわり包み込んだ
was softly wrapped up
風に揺られてさ掠れて遊ぶ
Swaying in the wind, hoarse and playing
平凡な今日を乗せて
carrying this ordinary today
また・・・
Again...
なんでもない振りをして
Pretending nothing's wrong
言葉をすり減らした午後
an afternoon worn thin of words
どうして大人はこうも真面目なのかな
Why are adults always so serious?
なんて思うのも退屈な
Even thinking that feels dull—
くらいに世界は広いからさ
the world is that wide
まあ今は無理に焦らなくてもいいよな
Well, no need to rush it now
変わる景色も
The changing scenery
霞む未来も
the hazy future
案外意味なんて無くて
turns out to mean nothing much
世界が暮れてく・・・
and the world grows dark...
繋ぐ言葉も 終わる赤も
The words that connect, the red that ends,
滲んで溶けてくだけ
only blur and melt away
微かに感じる未来の風が
A faint breeze of the future
丘を照らし出したんだ
lit up the hill
潤む透明夏 願う今をさ
The moist, transparent summer—this wishing moment,
無数に浮かべてさ
I float it up countless times
音を風に乗せて想う明日(あす)に
Riding my voice on the wind, thinking of tomorrow
少し酔いそうな今を
this moment, almost intoxicating
ずっと・・・
forever...
