眠(ねむ)りを殺(ころ)す恋心(こいごころ) 真昼(まひる)真夏(まなつ)の蜃気楼(しんきろう) 気(け)だるい陽射(ひざ)し
A love that keeps me from sleeping, midsummer noon's mirage, the languid sun
 
 
綺麗(きれい)だわ まあるい金魚鉢(すいそう)に
So beautiful—in the round fishbowl
ユラユラと紅(あか)い尾(お)がひるがえる
A red tail slowly turns
優雅(ゆうが)で自由(じゆう)にすら見(み)える 不思議(ふしぎ)… 敵(かな)わない
So graceful it seems almost free; how strange… I can't compare
 
 
風(かぜ)の中(なか)のオルゴールが奏(かな)でる
A music box plays in the wind
潮騒(しおさい)の音(おと)耳(みみ)をすましたら今(いま)はただ
I listen to the sound of the tide; for now I just
明日(あす)を憂(うれ)うこの心(こころ)を繋(つな)ぐ愛(いと)しい人(ひと) そっと想(おも)う
Quietly think of the one I love, who holds this heart anxious about tomorrow
 
 
心(こころ)のままに生(い)きること一人(ひとり)秘(ひそ)かに誓(ちか)ってた日々(ひび)に弱気(よわき)
I once promised myself in secret to live as I felt, but now I'm afraid to face those days
 
 
八月(はちがつ)の朝(あさ)に届(とど)く花束(はな)
The bouquet that arrived on an August morning
待(ま)ち人(びと)は来(こ)ない事(こと)告(つ)げている
Announced that the one I waited for wouldn't come
いつもの誕生(たんじょう)日(び)なのに妙(みょう)に胸騒(むなさわ)ぎ
Though it's my birthday, just like any other, my heart feels strangely uneasy
 
 
風(かぜ)の中(なか)のオルゴールの音色(ねいろ)に
With the music box's tune in the wind
揺(ゆ)らぐ記憶(きおく)はただ繰(く)り返(かえ)すだけ もう一度(いちど)
Swaying memories play over and over
やさしい声(こえ)ききたくて ふとね叶(かな)わぬ願(ねが)いつぶやく
I want to hear your gentle voice once more; without thinking, I whisper a wish that can't come true
 
 
風(かぜ)の中(なか)のオルゴールが奏(かな)でる
A music box plays in the wind
潮騒(しおさい)の音(おと)耳(みみ)をすましたら今(いま)はただ
I listen to the sound of the tide; for now I just
明日(あす)を憂(うれ)うこの心(こころ)を繋(つな)ぐ愛(いと)しい人(ひと) そっと想(おも)う
Quietly think of the one I love, who holds this heart anxious about tomorrow
