みちづれ - Kiyoshi Hikawa перевод на английский

みちづれ

水にただよう 浮草に
おなじさだめと 指をさす
言葉少なに 目をうるませて
俺をみつめて うなずくおまえ
きめた きめた おまえとみちづれに

花の咲かない 浮草に
いつか実のなる ときをまつ
寒い夜ふけは お酒を買って
たまのおごりと はしゃぐ姿に
きめた きめた おまえとみちづれに

根なし明日なし 浮草に
月のしずくの やどるころ
夢の中でも この手をもとめ
さぐりあてれば 小さな寝息
きめた きめた おまえとみちづれに

Traveling Companion

Like a duckweed drifting on the water,
You point, saying we share the same fate.
With few words, your eyes welling up,
You look at me and nod.
I've decided, I've decided, to travel this road with you.

Like a duckweed that doesn't bloom,
We wait for the time when it will bear fruit.
On cold late nights, I buy some sake,
And seeing you excitedly enjoy the occasional treat,
I've decided, I've decided, to travel this road with you.

Like a rootless, futureless duckweed,
When the moon's dew settles upon it,
Even in my dreams, I search for your hand,
And finding it, I hear your soft breaths.
I've decided, I've decided, to travel this road with you.
