Paroles et traduction 石川智晶 - Hevenly Blue

Hevenly Blue

一輪の朝顔の美しさをお前なら
どう例えるのだろう どう触るのだろう
黙り込む器にくちびるつけて
含んだ景色を私ならどう詠むのだろう

Heavenly Blue Heavenly Blue
凡百のものを切り捨てていく
Heavenly Blue 容赦なく降る鉄屑の舞
そこから唯一の粋人だけを残す究極の術
お前なら成せるか 私なら出会えるか

土の壁這っていく青紫は夢をみる
うつろいやすい午後にその花びら閉じる
混ざり合う背中が底に沈んで
上澄みだけをどちらかが飲み干していく

Heavenly Blue Heavenly Blue
滅びの美意識が重なる時に
Heavenly Blue 喉元を熱くさせる世情
このレクイエムに一服進ぜよう閑寂の境地

Heavenly Blue Heavenly Blue
Heavenly Heavenly Blue
Heavenly Blue Heavenly

Heavenly Blue

If you were to describe the beauty of a single morning glory,
how would you compare it? How would you touch it?
I will bring to my lips my wordless vessel;
how will I recite the scene it contains?

Heavenly Blue, Heavenly Blue,
casting aside all mediocrity.
Heavenly Blue, an unforgiving shower of falling shrapnel,
the ultimate art of isolating a single aesthete.
Could you accomplish this? Could I chance upon it?

Creeping over an earthen wall, the deep purple dreams.
Its petals close in the unstable afternoon.
Our fused forms sink to the bottom;
one of us alone will drain the clear supernatant.

Heavenly Blue, Heavenly Blue,
when the aesthetics of destruction coincide.
Heavenly Blue, the heated public feelings burn your throat.
A libation to this requiem; let us seek the realm of tranquility.

Heavenly Blue, Heavenly Blue,
Heavenly Heavenly Blue,
Heavenly Blue Heavenly
