Paroles et traduction Ai Higuchi - 夏のまぼろし

夏のまぼろし

「７月に入ったら船に乗って海に行こう 誰もいない静かなビーチで
言葉のいらない景色だけ追いかけて ゆっくり過ごしていよう」
カレンダーめくったら 長い横矢印で 書き込んだのは君だったっけ
消すのも癪だし 一か月ぐらい我慢して見ないように過ごしていよう

探せないものならあきらめもつくけどさ
なくしたところに 置いてけぼりかな 忘れただけかな

きらきらと光るのは夏の幻 ぼんやりと灯るのは涙のせいかな
ゆらゆらと陽炎が僕を笑って 手が届かないところへ 君を泳がせたのさ

サンダルの裏にはさまった石の粒 あの砂浜の星の砂
小さな瓶に入れて いつか一緒に返そう 君はいつも笑ってた

いつでも君が僕を見つけてくれた
なくしたところで 探しているかな もう戻れないかなあ

きらきらと光るのは君の幻 さびしくて胸の中 風が吹いてる

きらきらと光るのは夏の幻 ぼんやりと消さないで 走る想いのまま
ゆらゆらと陽炎が僕を笑って 手が届かないところへ 君を泳がせたのさ
君は夏の幻

Summer mirage

“When July comes, let's take a boat and go to the sea. At a quiet beach where there is no one,
we'll just chase the scenery that needs no words and spend our time leisurely.”
When I turned the calendar, it was you who wrote in a long diagonal arrow,
I felt bad to erase it, so I endured it for about a month and tried not to look at it.

If it's something I can't find, I can give up, but,
in the place where I lost it, did you leave me behind? Or did I just forget?

The sparkling glow is a summer mirage. Is the faint light because of my tears?
The shimmering heat haze laughs at me, and it has taken you to a place I can't reach.

There were grains of sand stuck to the bottom of my sandals, the star sand of that beach.
I put them in a small bottle, intending to return them with you someday. You always laughed.

It was always you who found me.
If I've lost it, will you still be searching? Can I never go back?

The sparkling glow is your mirage. I'm lonely, and there's a wind blowing in my chest.

The sparkling glow is a summer mirage. Don't let it fade, just follow the path of your thoughts.
The shimmering heat haze laughs at me, and it has taken you to a place I can't reach.
You are a summer mirage.
