Paroles et traduction Akina Nakamori - 花よ踊れ

花よ踊れ

色褪せた花 風にふるえて
何も夢見ず ただ待っている
どこへ 行けると言うの 天を見あげて訊く
あきらめたら終わり 突然風が叫ぶ
それは孤独よ 消えない孤独 果てなく続く ピルエット
求めていたの 渇いていたの 固く唇 閉じたまま
おいで力よ 眠った力 今新しく 生まれるの
もっと激しく もっと優しく 色鮮やかに 咲くために
今日までずっと 忘れられてた
情熱という ひとつの蕾
誰の ためにでもなく 天を見あげて咲く
踊れ小さな花 風をあやつりながら
それは光よ あふれる光 眩しさに眼を 閉じるけど
瞼の裏の 闇を照らして 躯を焦がす 熱がある
ごらん炎よ はじける炎 今鮮やかに 燃えあがる
生きてる限り 愛する限り 決して枯れない この花は
それは孤独よ 消えない孤独 果てなく続く ピルエット
求めていたの 渇いていたの いつも口には しないまま
おいで力よ 眠った力 今新しく 生まれるの
もっと激しく もっと優しく 色鮮やかに 咲くために

Flower, Dance

The flower that has lost its luster trembles in the wind,
Without a dream, idly waiting.
Looking up at the sky and asking, 'Where can I go?'
'If you give up, it's over,' the wind suddenly cries out.
It is loneliness, the loneliness that never fades, the endless pirouette.
I was longing, I was thirsty, with lips firmly shut.
Come, my strength, the strength that has slumbered. Now, anew, you are born.
To bloom more passionately, more gently, and with more vibrant colors.
Until today, I had been forgotten,
A single bud of passion.
Not for anyone, but for myself, blooming up towards the heavens.
Dance, little flower, while swaying with the wind.
It is light, overflowing light. I close my eyes, dazzled.
Yet, behind my eyelids, the darkness is illuminated. There is a heat that burns my body.
Look, the flames, the radiant flames. Now, they burn brightly with new life.
As long as I live, as long as I love, this flower will never wither away.
It is loneliness, the loneliness that never fades, the endless pirouette.
I was longing, I was thirsty, but I never uttered a word.
Come, my strength, the strength that has slumbered. Now, anew, you are born.
To bloom more passionately, more gently, and with more vibrant colors.
