Текст и перевод песни Koji Tamaki - 時代おくれ

時代おくれ

一日二杯の 酒を飲み
肴は特に こだわらず
マイクが来たなら 微笑んで

十八番を一つ 歌うだけ
妻には涙を 見せないで
子供に 愚痴を 聞かせずに
男の嘆きは ほろ酔いで
酒場の隅に 置いていく
目立たぬように はしゃがぬように
似合わぬことは 無理をせず
人の心を 見つめ続ける
時代おくれの男になりたい
不器用だけれど しらけずに
純粋だけど 野暮じゃなく
上手なお酒を飲みながら
１年一度酔っ払う
昔の友には 優しくて
変わらぬ友と 信じこみ
あれこれ仕事も あるくせに
自分のことは後にする
妬まぬように 焦らぬように
飾った世界に 流されず
好きな誰かを 思い続ける
時代おくれの男になりたい
目立たぬように はしゃがぬように
似合わぬことは 無理をせず
人の心を 見つめ続ける
時代おくれの 男になりたい

Old-Fashioned

I drink two cups of sake a day,
Without particularity about snacks,
And if the mic comes to me, I'll only smile

And sing my specialty song,
Not letting my wife see my tears
Nor letting my children hear my complaints,
A man's laments are best left in the haze
Of the tavern's corner.
Without standing out or making a fuss,
Without forcing myself to do what doesn't suit me,
I'll continue to gaze into people's hearts.
I aspire to be an old-fashioned man,
A bit clumsy but not discouraged,
Pure but not coarse,
Getting pleasantly drunk on fine alcohol
Once a year.
I'll remain kind to old friends,
Believing they're still the same old friends.
Though I have various jobs,
I'll put my own needs last.
Without getting jealous or impatient,
Without getting carried away by a showy world,
I'll keep thinking of that special someone.
I aspire to be an old-fashioned man.
Without standing out or making a fuss,
Without forcing myself to do what doesn't suit me,
I'll continue to gaze into people's hearts.
I aspire to be an old-fashioned man.
