Lyrics and translation Humbert Humbert - 虎




Tiger
何を見ても何をしても
No matter what I see or do
僕の心凍えたまま
My heart remains frozen
外は花が咲いていても
Outside, the flowers are in bloom
僕の庭は冬枯れたまま
But my garden remains barren
どこにいても誰といても
Wherever I go and whomever I'm with
僕の時計止まったまま
My clock has stopped
深い深い穴の底で
At the bottom of a deep, deep hole
一人惨めにいじけている
I sit alone and wretched
人の胸に届くような
If I could only write a song
そんな歌がつくれたら
That could reach the hearts of others
だめだ、だめだ、今日はやめだ
No, no, I'll quit for today
メロディひとつできやしない
I can't even come up with a melody
酒だ、酒だ、同じことさ
Alcohol, alcohol, it's all the same
昼間からつぶれて眠る
I'll get drunk and sleep during the day
何を見ても何をしても
No matter what I see or do
虚ろな目は死んだ魚
My empty eyes are like a dead fish
吐き出されたコトバたちが
The words I've uttered
部屋中溢れて腐っている
Overflow and rot in my room
人の胸に残るような
If I could only write a song
そんな歌がつくれたら
That would linger in the hearts of others
負けた、負けた、今日も負けだ
I've lost, I've lost, I've lost again today
光るコトバ見つからない
I can't find the words to shine
酒だ、酒だ、飲んでしまえ
Alcohol, alcohol, drink it all down
虎にもなれずに溺れる
Drown without ever becoming a tiger
