Paroles et traduction Kinoko Teikoku - Canon

Canon

お願いギターをもう少し弾いて
とりあえずもっと激しく鳴らして

どれだけ悩んでも時間が経つだけ

誰と分かちあっても
きみに届かないのなら
歌う理由など無いに等しいの
たとえ何処にいても
きみが此処にいないのなら
何をしていてもきっと虚しいよ

あたしの声をもう少し聴いて
とりあえずマイクのボリューム上げて

何にも考えずいれたらいいのに

喉が震える瞬間の
喜びに比べたら
生きる大義など意味を持たないの
たとえ声が枯れても
ギターを弾けないとしても
身体のなかで音楽は鳴っている

誰と分かちあっても
きみに届かないのなら
歌う理由など無いに等しいの
たとえ何処にいても
きみが此処にいないのなら
何をしていてもきっと寂しいよ

My dear, could you play the guitar a little more?
For now, make it sound more intense.

I could brood over it as long as I want, but time is flying by.

Even if I were to share it with someone,
If it doesn’t reach you,
There’s hardly any point in continuing to sing.
Even if we’re physically apart,
If you’re not here with me,
Everything will surely feel empty.

My dear, could you listen to my voice for a little while longer?
For now, turn up the microphone volume.

I should just pour out my feelings without thinking too much.

Compared to the joy
I feel in the moment my voice quivers,
The meaning of my existence has no significance.
Even if my voice becomes hoarse,
Even if I can’t play the guitar,
The music within me will always continue to play.

Even if I were to share it with someone,
If it doesn’t reach you,
There’s hardly any point in continuing to sing.
Even if we’re physically apart,
If you’re not here with me,
Everything will surely feel lonely.
