Natsuyasumi - Saucy Dog Übersetzung ins Englische

Natsuyasumi

蚊取り線香がジリジリと
白く燃えて落ちていく
僕は縁側、蝉の大合唱聞きながら
"あぁ足が痒いな"

スイカの種を空に飛ばして
午後は何をしようかな
特に予定があるわけじゃないけど
今夜も課題は後回し

誰かのデータなんかじゃないよ
チートも魔法も使えない

どこか遠くの街で 独りで生きながら
愛する事を学んだり
そんなありふれた日々に 抱いた憧れも
当たり前じゃないと知った

痛みも悲しみもリアルで
もっと上手に生きていたい

瞼を閉じて開いたらもう
夕焼けのチャイムが鳴り
"あの夏の日にはもう戻れない"
そう言われた気がしたのさ

時間が無いなんて言い訳さ
僕がよく分かってるよ
思い描いた日々が眩しすぎて
今が真っ暗に思えてくる

"ああだったこうだった"
って悩んでいたら勿体ないぜ
そうモノクロだったコントラスト
色付けしていくこれから

そこが天国だって地獄だって
もうどうせ後には戻れない
だからどうやって どうやって生きて行くのか
死に方は選べ少年

遠くの街で 出会った人達や
愛する人と笑ったり
そんなありふれた日々が 堪らなく愛しいって
なんか泣きそうになったり

酸いも甘いも噛み締めて
シナリオなんてひとつもなくていい

Summer Vacation

The mosquito coil steadily burns,
Turning white as it falls to ash.
I'm on the veranda, listening to the cicadas' chorus,
"Ah, my legs are itchy."

I spit watermelon seeds into the sky,
Wondering what to do this afternoon.
I don't have any particular plans, but
Tonight, my homework will wait again.

This isn't someone else's data, you know,
There are no cheats or magic I can use.

Living alone in some faraway city,
Learning how to love,
The longing I held for those ordinary days,
I realized they weren't something to take for granted.

The pain and sadness are real,
I want to live better, you see.

I close my eyes, and when I open them again,
The sunset chimes are ringing.
"I can't go back to those summer days,"
That's what it felt like I was told.

"I don't have time," is just an excuse,
I know that all too well.
The days I envisioned are so dazzling,
That the present seems completely dark.

It's a waste to worry about
"What ifs" and "Could have beens".
This monochrome contrast,
I'll start coloring it in from now on.

Whether it's heaven or hell,
There's no going back anyway.
So how, how will you live your life?
You can't choose how you die, boy.

The people I met in that faraway city,
Laughing with the ones I love,
Those ordinary days are so unbearably precious,
It almost makes me want to cry.

Savoring both the bitter and the sweet,
I don't need a script at all.
