Paroles et traduction MEGAHORN - Treasure Box

Treasure Box

拾い集めた なんでもない様な石ころ 誰かにとってはただのボロ
それでも何か価値あるモノ そう信じたあの頃の心
いつかと言えばLong Time Ago 誰にもきっとあったであろう
幼き日々の宝物 それを大事に眺めた過去
ついさっきまで 少年はたくましく校庭に立ってた
いつか大人になって 前に進むために地を這ってた
あれからどう過ごしてきた俺ら 手繰り寄せたはずのTreasure
一瞬で消えたかそれともForever 魂に問えば

今 開けてみれば 覗いてみれば 自分だけの大切にしたいモノ
時の中でかき集めた どれくらい何を箱に詰めた
蓋 開けてみれば 覗いてみれば 嘘偽りのない確かなモノ
ちゃんとあるのを見つけた 本当の気持ちにまた気付けた

夢追うことよりひたすらに 誰かを妬みで蹴落とす企み
慣れ合いの中での傷の舐め合い 求めるだけの出鱈目な愛
やってもないのにハッタリ 常にPosition守ってばっかり
はき違えたこだわりや 根拠のないガラスのプライドだったり
それでも得たモノが生きた証 だったら甚だバカバカしい
そんなにガラクタばっかし ならば、いったんまるごと空にし
それとは逆に必要なものは 容易く得られないものだ
一度失うともう二度とは 戻せないと知った

今 開けてみれば 覗いてみれば 自分だけの大切にしたいモノ
時の中でかき集めた どれくらい何を箱に詰めた
蓋 開けてみれば 覗いてみれば 嘘偽りのない確かなモノ
ちゃんとあるのを見つけた 本当の気持ちにまた気付けた

移り行く時代の喧噪に 流れの速いテンポに
守らなくてはいけないことを 決して惑わされずに
あの頃の様な澄み切った確かな心のレンズに
今の自分を映し出して感じたことを偽らずに

今 開けてみれば 家族や仲間 繋がりでの中の強い絆や
誰かへ忘れぬ感謝 信頼の気持ちも自分に反射
蓋 開けてみれば 学ぶ意欲や 後悔すべき過ちの記憶や
失敗しても一から 経験による乗り越える力

些細なことで喜ぶ気持ちや 今はもう会えない人との思い出や
金がすべてじゃない意識や 長いものには巻かれない意思や
笑われようが 世界の平和 夢に対する熱さとひたむきさ
ちゃんとあること確かめながら 俺らはまた進んでく

Treasure Box

You gather a bunch of little stones that seem worthless to anyone else
But you believed they had some sort of hidden value dear
In the past, you said, "someday", I'm sure anyone would agree
Of the treasures from your childhood days, precious memories to see
Not too long ago, you were running around the schoolyard with a smile
Hoping someday you would grow up and live a life worthwhile
How have you been spending your days, what kind of treasure did you find
Was it fleeting or is it still in your soul to remind

When you open it up and look inside, you'll find what you hold dear
In time, you've collected much, how much have you kept near
Open the lid and look inside, where truth and certainty reside
You've found what's real, you can't hide, your true feelings you will confide

Rather than chasing your dreams, you spend your time putting others down
You've grown accustomed to licking your wounds, from love you seek, but never found
You bluff and brag about things you've never done, always guarding your position in the sun
You've confused your beliefs with lies, and your fragile pride reaches for the skies
But if what you've gained is proof of your life, then it's all been a waste of strife
Instead of filling it with junk, you should empty it all, my dear
Because the things you truly need, won't come to you so clear
Once you lose them, there's no going back, they won't be there when you turn and look back

When you open it up and look inside, you'll find what you hold dear
In time, you've collected much, how much have you kept near
Open the lid and look inside, where truth and certainty reside
You've found what's real, you can't hide, your true feelings you will confide

In the midst of the noise of the changing times, with its fast-paced tempo
Never let go of what you must protect, don't let the doubts grow
Like the clear and pure lens of your heart as a child
Reflect on who you are now, don't let the truth be defiled

When you open it up and look inside, you'll find your family and friends
Unbreakable bonds, and gratitude that never ends
Open the lid and look inside, the desire to learn, and memories of the past, mistakes made
Even when you fail, you can start again, the strength to overcome, the pain

The simple things that bring joy, those you can't meet again
Knowing money isn't everything, and not following the crowd
Even if you're laughed at, your passion for peace, your dreams
Make sure of what's real, and we'll keep moving forward, my dear
