Текст и перевод песни Kiyoshi Hikawa - 回転木馬(メリーゴーランド)

回転木馬(メリーゴーランド)

人は誰かを愛して 喜び切なさ知りながら 大人になってゆく
報われない恋に傾き 傷つき散ってく花達も
季節めぐればまたよみがえる
人生はいつだって回転木馬

群れを離れた鳥でも どこかに塒を探すだろう 生きてくためならば
涙したなら眠ることだと
教える夜空の星さえも
朝になったらだまって消える
人生はいつだって回転木馬

夢の在りかを求めて はかなさ 遠さを知らされて
ふたたび 立ち上がる
生きることは強さ弱さと
ふたつの心のせめぎあい
愛と涙がくり返すだけ
人生はいつだって回転木馬 回転木馬

Carousel (Merry-Go-Round)

We love, we find joy, we learn sadness, and so we become adults, my dear.
Unrequited love, hearts tilting, flowers blooming and scattering, wounded and lost.
But the seasons turn, and they bloom again, just like our love can.
Life is always a carousel, spinning us around together.

Even a bird that leaves the flock, my love, will search for a place to roost, to survive the night.
When you cry, sleep, the stars whisper in the night sky.
Even those guiding stars, so bright and true, fade with the morning dew.
They disappear silently as dawn breaks, just like my fears when I'm with you.
Life is always a carousel, a constant turning, a constant chance.

Searching for where dreams reside, learning of their fleeting nature, their distance, their disguise.
And yet, we rise again, stronger and more sure.
Living is a struggle between strength and weakness, darling, a constant interplay.
A battle within our hearts, between hope and despair, between what we want and what's fair.
Love and tears repeat themselves, a cycle we can't escape, a dance we share.
Life is always a carousel, a carousel, turning ever on.
