Mr. Children - 名もなき詩

Mr. Children – Unnamed Poem     

I’ll eat all, even if it’s stained a little  

Oh, darlin’  

Who are you?  

You hold the truth  

If you doubt me,

I'll cut out my throat, and give it to you

Oh, darlin’

I’m no darlin’

I’ll give you something precious

Standing in an annoying town,

I’m about to lose my emotions

In such disharmonic life,

Don’t you sometimes become emotionally unstable?

But, darlin’

I’ll worry together with you

I’ll dedicate my life to you

You spend time while blaming someone for the weakness as you cannot live as you are

If you're struggling inside a cage of your individuality you have developed before you noticed

Your behavior is the same as mine

No matter how much comrades understand each other

They will have a lonely night someday

Oh, darlin’

This discontent will linger

I used various things as steppingstones, but

I think I've finally found something that should not be lost

Your behavior makes me soft-hearted

As much as it is funny

Oh darlin’

Let me listen to your dream every time I see you

I believe that love is not stolen or given,

But already exists there while you are unaware

You only have to throw away your odd pride

While singing amid the town breeze

Then, it will start

Despair and disappointment (down)

Why do you look gloomy?

Love, freedom, hope, and a dream (courage)

Just look around

You will find them beside you

Even if you hurt someone as a result of a happy-go-lucky romance

Your heart may not ache in the present age

Thinking of someone turns out to be harmful, and stabs your own heart

Nevertheless

Everyone hopes to be him/herself in his/her life, so

He/she will get hurt again

If you're struggling inside a cage of your individuality you have developed before you noticed

Your behavior is the same as everyone’s and

The same as mine

It's always difficult to confess love, a shapeless thing

So darlin’

I will keep offering this “unnamed poem” to you forever
