Uru – 願い

Uru – Wish     

It was not easy to walk alone while seeing a gray view  

Pulling a thread while tracing its vague silhouette,  

I found the thread not connected  

“Hey, let’s see the rising sun someday”

You said, and reached out a hand gently

If I had walked more neatly,

Would I be leading a different life?

I get entangled more as I struggle

While being overwhelmed by the creaky world, and

Dropping important things one after another

The two of us made a wish

The ordinary we’ve seen somewhere before would suffice

We no longer want the world where we only get hurt

If our paths had not crossed,

I would remain alone

I hated the empty days on which I merely breathed

You told me the thing I left somewhere and nearly forgot

Nearly getting mired in a distorted road, and

Nearly tumbling after being swayed by the wind,

The two of use made a wish

We no longer want a fleeting illusion or the false world

For example, dirty landscapes and the colors of the ugly town increase as I walk, but

There is a thing I can believe in, so

I won’t shed tears

And now, I will walk new days

While being overwhelmed by the creaky world, and

Dropping important things one after another

The two of us made a wish

The ordinary we’ve seen somewhere before would suffice

We no longer want the world where we only get hurt
