Paroles et traduction Hiroshi Itsuki - 人生かくれんぼ

人生かくれんぼ

惚れていたんだ おまえにだけは
ぐちになるから 言葉にゃださぬ
風がしみるよ 心がさむい
ちょいと人生 かくれんぼ
灯りひろって ちどり足

わかるもんかよ やさしさだけじゃ
生きてゆけない 男のにがさ
バカな奴だよ 背中をむけて
ちょいと人生 かくれんぼ
意地をとおして ひとりぼっち

時がうつれば 世間も変わる
変わりようない おいらの心
酒よ今夜は 酔わせてほしい
ちょいと人生 かくれんぼ
泣いて笑って 生きてゆく

Life's Hide-and-Seek

I was in love, only with you,
But it'd be complaining, so I kept it unsaid.
The wind cuts through me, my heart is cold,
Just playing life's hide-and-seek.
Picking up the lights, tiptoeing along.

How could you understand? Just kindness alone
Isn't enough for a man to live on, it's a bitter truth.
I'm a fool, turning my back,
Just playing life's hide-and-seek.
Stubbornly going it alone.

Time passes, the world changes,
But my heart remains the same.
Oh, sake, tonight, let me get drunk,
Just playing life's hide-and-seek.
Laughing and crying, living on.
