Текст и перевод песни ケツメイシ - 大東京

大東京

東江戸川 西は奥多摩
空に伸びるビルにタワー
都市部には世界一の人口
文化を生み 経済流行リード
で君はどこから
俺はフロム神戸経由して横浜
大事なのは「どこから来た」より
「何をしてる」か「何をした」かだ

元気ですか、東京!
夢追ってますか、東京!!
アジアや世界に負けてない?
良い時にあぐらかいて 怠けてない??
暗い夜は東京音頭踊りな
辛い日には東京タワー登りな
問題もあるが魅惑のエリア
元気押し出せ盛り上げ 夢は絵になる

Hey! How are you doing Tokyo?
田舎から? 郊外? 在住? ようこそ!
探してるもの やりたいこと
夢を叶える街 大東京

Hey! How are you doing Tokyo?
海外!? Hey guys! What′s up? Welcome!
光り輝き 眠らない街
何でもある街 大東京

T・O・K・Y・O 気が抜けないぞ!
怠けてる奴は、置いていかれるぞ
想像以上にある人情に 便乗して日々 To The Beat Yo
俺は東京の端っこで育った八王子っ子 から今この大東京
今日も粋ないなせな プレーヤー気取りながらの生活
目まぐるしくも 奇しくも この街は
オートマティックだが夜はドラマティック
愛や恋で溢れ 夢や希望に敗れた
若者のたまり場 BARにたくさんの居酒屋
毎晩のように街は賑やか
諦めなけりゃ何度でも
夢叶えられる ここ大東京

Hey! How are you doing Tokyo?
田舎から? 郊外? 在住? ようこそ!
探してるもの やりたいこと
夢を叶える街 大東京

Hey! How are you doing Tokyo?
海外!? Hey guys! What's up? Welcome!
光り輝き 眠らない街
何でもある街 大東京

俺は東京タワー見ながら育った
毎日刺激 ここ居たから貰った
だから何か変えたきゃここにおいで
後先考えるの 置いといて
夢見る奴らが集まって
日々実現する為 闘ってる
モロ圧倒される数の摩天楼は
君に問いかける「やるの?」「やめんの?」

でもビルの裏には 民家があって
じーさんばーさん みんな笑ってる
ここにも意外にある 義理人情
助け助けられ 日々進歩
ダメならまたやる何度でも
夢を捨てなきゃなるなんとでも
感じたら応答すぐに行動
Hey yo! What′s up? どうよ東京!!

Hey! How are you doing Tokyo?
田舎から? 郊外? 在住? ようこそ!
探してるもの やりたいこと
夢を叶える街 大東京

Hey! How are you doing Tokyo?
海外!? Hey guys! What's up? Welcome!
光り輝き 眠らない街
何でもある街 大東京

Big Tokyo

East Edogawa, west Okutama
Towering buildings and skyscrapers towards the sky
Urban areas with the world's largest population
Birthing culture, leading the economy and trends
So, where are you from
I'm from Kobe, via Yokohama
What matters more than "where you're from"
Is "what you're doing" and "what you've done"

How are you, Tokyo?
Are you chasing your dreams, Tokyo?
Are you losing out to Asia and the world?
Are you getting lazy and complacent in good times?
On dark nights, dance to "Tokyo Ondo"
On tough days, climb Tokyo Tower
It's an area of problems, but also allure
Push out your energy, get excited, dreams will come true

Hey! How are you doing Tokyo?
From the countryside? Suburbs? Welcome!
Looking for something, something to do
A city where dreams come true, Big Tokyo

Hey! How are you doing Tokyo?
Overseas!? Hey guys! What's up? Welcome!
A city that shines, that never sleeps
A city where anything is possible, Big Tokyo

T・O・K・Y・O No breaks!
For those who get lazy, you'll get left behind
Living on the kindness that's more present than you think, To The Beat Yo
I was a child brought up in the suburbs of Tokyo, from Hachioji, now in this Big Tokyo
Even today, living in style
Like it or not, like it or not
Automatic but dramatic at night
Overflowing with love and romance, defeated by dreams and aspirations
Youth hangouts, bars, and countless izakaya
The streets are always lively
If you never give up
You can make your dreams come true, here in Big Tokyo

Hey! How are you doing Tokyo?
From the countryside? Suburbs? Welcome!
Looking for something, something to do
A city where dreams come true, Big Tokyo

Hey! How are you doing Tokyo?
Overseas!? Hey guys! What's up? Welcome!
A city that shines, that never sleeps
A city where anything is possible, Big Tokyo

I grew up looking at the Tokyo Tower
I got inspired every day here
So, if you want to change something, come here
Don't think about the future
The dreamers gather here
Fighting every day to make it happen
The number of towering buildings is overwhelming
It asks you, "Are you going to do it? Or not?"

But behind the buildings
There are homes
Grandpas and grandmas
Here, too, there is unexpected human kindness
Helping each other, we progress
If it doesn't work out, we'll try again
If you don't give up, you'll make it
Feel it, respond, take action, Hey yo! What's up? Tokyo!!

Hey! How are you doing Tokyo?
From the countryside? Suburbs? Welcome!
Looking for something, something to do
A city where dreams come true, Big Tokyo

Hey! How are you doing Tokyo?
Overseas!? Hey guys! What's up? Welcome!
A city that shines, that never sleeps
A city where anything is possible, Big Tokyo
