Paroles et traduction Shinji Tanimura - 口笛が聞こえる町

口笛が聞こえる町

旅に出るなら雨の日が一番似合うと思っていた
右手には傘、左手にはつかみそこねた幸福を
ついてなかった生きる事に
努力はいつもしていたが
所詮笑顔の似合わない人もいる
かもめが低く飛ぶ曇り空
ロシアの船の着く港
砕ける波 ほほにつめたく 旅立ちを責める
思い出せば楽しいことも少しはあった

誰が吹くやらこんな日に聞きたくもない口笛を
誰が吹くやらこんな日にとうに忘れた口笛を...

消すに消せない痣のある
まちがいだらけの青春と
分かっているのは誰れよりも
自分なんだと知っていた
心の糧になる本を鞄の底にしのばせて
話し相手にしてみても夜は長い
いかつり舟の漁火だけが淋しくゆれる北の海
窓にうつる自分の顔は若くはなかった
悲しいけど大人の顔に変っていた

誰れが吹くやらこんな日に聞きたくもない口笛を
誰れが吹くやらこんな日にとうに忘れた口笛を...

Town Where the Whistle Blows

When leaving on a journey, a rainy day is best
An umbrella in my right hand, in my left, happiness I fumbled
In an unfortunate life
I tried my best but
There are people to whom a smile just does not suit
Seagulls fly low in a cloudy sky
To the port where Russian ships arrive
Breaking waves sting my cheeks, reproaching my departure
When I think back, there were good times, too

Who's blowing it? This whistle I don't want to hear on a day like this
Who's blowing it? This whistle I long ago forgot... on a day like this

You cannot erase the scar
Of a youth filled with mistakes
And I understand better than anyone
That the fault lies with me
Hiding a book that nourishes the soul deep in my bag
Even talking to it, the night is long
Only the fishing boats' lights sway forlornly on the northern sea
The reflection in the window was not a young face
Sadly, it had become the face of an adult

Who's blowing it? This whistle I don't want to hear on a day like this
Who's blowing it? This whistle I long ago forgot... on a day like this
