玉置浩二 – 田園

Koji Tamaki – Countryside     

Kicking a pebble, I cried while gazing at the setting sun  

Looking up at the night sky, you wished on a star  

Covered with grease, that dude fell silent  

Shirking work, that girl put her chin on her hand  

Unable to do anything, save anyone, or heal any sorrow, but

As long as you do your best everyday

Without acting cool

You stay alive, that’s good enough

Even if you’re engulfed in buildings, and

Repelled by streets,

Keep a tight hold

I’m here

Everyone is here

There is love here

You cannot leave for anywhere

In the sunshine, I run like a horse

Calculating income, you held your head in your hands

That dude put a dandelion into an empty milk bottle

Going astray, that girl is at a loss

Unable to take anything, hurt anyone, or protect any happiness

As long as you make efforts tomorrow, too

Without rushing that much

Without hurrying that much

You stay alive, that’s good enough

No matter whether you are swallowed by waves or blown away by the wind

Don’t close your eyes

I’m here

Everyone is here, and you are here

What else could we do?

You stay alive, that’s good enough

Even if you’re engulfed in buildings, and

Repelled by streets,

Keep a tight hold

I’m here

Everyone is here

There is love here

You cannot leave for anywhere
