Текст и перевод песни Shinji Tanimura - 遠い花火

遠い花火

美しく生きたい あの時の君の声も
人混みにまぎれた 夜に散る花火のよう
浴衣の藍よりも 見下ろす川の
深さに負けまいと 君を抱きしめていた
あれは遠い日の幻だったのか
あれを初恋と人は呼ぶだろうか

僕は流れている この広い都会の河
人に染まりながら 音のない花火のよう
今年は帰りたい 約束の橋
それでも帰れない あの場所へ帰れない
僕は美しく生きていないから
今は故郷をなぜかさけている

汚れたこの河の 流れに浮かぶ
小さなうたかたに ネオンがキラめいてる
閉じた心にも鮮やかに見える
あの日君と見た遠い花火のよう
僕は石を投げた僕の思い出に
閉じた僕の目は遠い花火を見た

Distant Fireworks

I want to live beautifully; I remember the sound of your voice at that time
Like fireworks scattered in the night as you blend into the crowd
Deeper than the indigo of your 浴衣, the river I look down on
I held you close, determined not to lose to its depths
Was that just a fleeting illusion of a distant day?
Would people call that my first love?

I am flowing, this vast river of the city
Tinted by people, like silent fireworks
This year, I want to go back to the bridge of our promise
Yet I can't go back, I can't return to that place
Because I have not lived beautifully
Now, for some reason, I avoid my hometown

I float in the current of this polluted river
Neon lights shimmering in ephemeral bubbles
Even in my closed heart, they appear vivid
Like the distant fireworks we watched together that day
I threw a stone into my memory
My closed eyes saw distant fireworks
