Cockroach - Yu Takahashi traduction en anglais

Cockroach

蟻の糞ほども笑えない誰かの言葉に手を叩いて笑ったり
触覚でも生えたみたいに都合のいい距離を保ち 無害を装ったり

サイズ違いの型にハマるのも うまい具合にはみ出すのも
クライアント次第かつ変幻自在な 僕は嫌われ者のCockroach

何万回叩かれても そう簡単には終わらないよ
どんな環境下だって 這いつくばって前進し続けるよ
そうさ僕らは今日も生きている
生きていくための術を身につけていく
倒されてく そして起き上がるたび強くなる

蝶々のように華やかな翼じゃないけれど 舞うことなら出来るよ
薄暗い湿気の強い路地裏をステージにして 朝まで唄っていた

会いたい人に会える幸せならずっと覚えてるよ
戦うじゃなくてつながる喜び 醜くたって愛の即興詩

音楽は鳴り続けるよ 君に届くまで
愛し続けられるものが一個あれば踏み出せるよ
君も今どこかで歩いているの?
息が詰まりそうなこんな街に浮かんでる
月を見てる いつかまた笑える日を信じて

こんな時代と嘆くくらいなら 時代を蝕んじまえばいい
戦うじゃなくてつながる喜び 僕は嫌われ者のCockroach

何万回叩かれても そう簡単には終わらないよ
どんな環境下だって 這いつくばって前進し続けるよ
ずっと 音楽は鳴り続けるよ 君が笑うまで
愛し続けられるものが一個あれば踏み出せるよ
そうだ僕らは今日も生きている
生きていくための術を身につけていく
倒されてく そして起き上がるたび強くなる

Cockroach

I laugh at the words of someone who's less than the feces of an ant, and I clap my hands and laugh.
I pretend to be harmless, as if I have antennae that have sprouted, keeping a comfortable distance.

Fitting into a different mold, or standing out cleverly,
I'm a chameleon who changes depending on the client, I'm the hated Cockroach.

No matter how many times I'm hit, it won't be that easy to finish me off.
In any environment, I'll crawl and keep moving forward.
That's right, we're still alive today,
We're learning how to survive.
We get knocked down, and every time we get up, we get stronger.

My wings aren't as flashy as a butterfly's, but I can still dance.
I made the dim, humid back alley my stage and sang until morning.

I'll always remember the happiness of meeting someone I wanted to meet.
Not fighting, but the joy of connecting, an impromptu love poem, even if it's ugly.

The music will keep playing until it reaches you.
If there's one thing you can love forever, you can take that step.
Are you walking somewhere right now?
You're floating in this suffocating city.
I'm looking at the moon, believing that someday I'll be able to laugh again.

Instead of lamenting such an era, it would be better to corrode the era itself.
Not fighting, but the joy of connecting, I'm the hated Cockroach.

No matter how many times I'm hit, it won't be that easy to finish me off.
In any environment, I'll crawl and keep moving forward.
The music will keep playing forever, until you smile.
If there's one thing you can love forever, you can take that step.
That's right, we're still alive today,
We're learning how to survive.
We get knocked down, and every time we get up, we get stronger.
