Paroles et traduction Kazuya Yoshii - 襟裳岬

襟裳岬

北の街ではもう 悲しみを暖炉で
燃やしはじめてるらしい
理由のわからないことで 悩んでいるうち
老いぼれてしまうから
黙りとおした 歳月を
ひろい集めて 暖めあおう
襟裳の春は 何もない春です

君は二杯めだよね コーヒーカップに
角砂糖をひとつだったね
捨てて来てしまった わずらわしさだけを
くるくるかきまわして
通りすぎた 夏の匂い
想い出して 懐かしいね
襟裳の春は 何もない春です

日々の暮らしはいやでも やってくるけど
静かに笑ってしまおう
いじけることだけが 生きることだと
飼い馴らしすぎたので
身構えながら 話すなんて
ああ おくびょう なんだよね
襟裳の春は 何もない春です
寒い友だちが 訪ねてきたよ
遠慮はいらないから 暖まってゆきなよ

Cape Erimo

In the northern city, they've already begun to
Burn away their sorrows in the fireplace
For in worrying about things that don't make sense
They'll grow old and senile
The years we kept silent
Let's gather them up and warm ourselves with them
Spring in Erimo is a spring with nothing

That's your second cup, isn't it? In the coffee cup
You put one sugar cube
I've come to cast away nothing but the troubles
By stirring it around and around
The fragrance of summer has passed us by
Remembering it, I feel nostalgic
Spring in Erimo is a spring with nothing

The daily grind comes whether we like it or not
But let's laugh quietly at it
Because we've grown so used to thinking
That being petulant is the same as living
So I brace myself as I speak
Oh, how cowardly I am
Spring in Erimo is a spring with nothing
My dear friend, the cold has come to visit
So come on in and warm yourself, don't be shy
