Paroles et traduction Fuyumi Sakamoto - おとこの劇場

おとこの劇場

縦に割ろうと 斜めに斬ろと
俺のいちは 山吹いろだ
口にゃ出せずに 呑みこむだけの

下手な世渡り 風当り
俺には俺の 夢がある

見ても見ぬふり 人情も義理も
今の御時勢 かけらもないが
春の雨より やさしく沁(し)みた
可愛いあの娘(こ)の 袖しぐれ
俺には俺の夢がある

右を選ぶか 左をとるか
曲げちゃならない 筋道だけは
意地が男の 背骨じゃないか
涙けじめの 蝶つがい
俺には俺の 夢がある

The Man's Theater

If you try to split me vertically or cut me diagonally,
My core will always be the color of a mountain flower.
I can't say it out loud, so I just swallow it down

My clumsy navigation, the cold winds,
But I still have my own dreams.

I pretend not to see, human kindness and duty
In these modern times, they're almost gone
But your tears, my darling, soaked me gently
Like the spring rain, more tender than any flower
But I still have my own dreams.

To choose the right or the left,
The only thing I can't bend is my path.
Stubbornness is a man's backbone,
Tears are the hinges of determination.
But I still have my own dreams.
