In the middle of the night, hello how are you?

A leisurely conversation with God

In these seven days, let’s create it

Let’s start by splitting the sea

There’s only three colors on stop signs

Red / yellow / green, Why Why Why Why?

For the incomplete us, 

To fight, we

Deceive each other

Deceive each other

With you, lapping at the Fruit of Paradise, it seems possible

Making a verbal promise to have peace in our next life

There are always stairs in the sky 

Step by step gently

Anyone and everyone can live life comfortably

It’s a feeling of mass production for livestock

Avoiding eye contact, getting corralled 

With obsolete words, Try Try Try Try

You bit off more than you could chew? Who do you think you are

What I really need is

I’m sorry

I’m sorry

Even the devil is scared of this kind of world and won’t hold a toast

Take a photo of this travesty, in this next life say “cheese”

As dawn breaks, a crow envoy

In a cavity of a tree, it starts to Cry Cry Cry Cry

In an empty container, there’s one last drop

Drink it all up

With you, lapping at the Fruit of Paradise, it seems possible

Making a verbal promise to have peace in our next life

I want to be with you, I want it to be you

Everyone aside from you, I can’t see, can’t see

Meow♥

You want to be with me, you want it to be me

Everyone aside from me, they don’t exist don’t exist

不死鳥

fushichou

Phoenix

朝に見上げた世界の眩しさに

asa ni miageta sekai no mabushisa ni

I looked up in the morning; I got overwhelmed

やられちゃって、もう落ち込んだ

yarare chatte, mou ochi konda

By the world’s brilliance, and had already saddened

君は呆れた笑顔で　”馬鹿みたい”

kimi ha akireta egao de “baka mitai”

You were astounded, and with a smile, said ‘That’s stupid,’

駆け寄り、見つめたよ

kakeyori, mitsumeta yo

I ran over, and gazed at you

君は「愛してる、キミがもし転んだら　手を取りあえばいいの」

kimi ha ‘aishiteru, kimi ga moshi korondara te wo toriaeba ii no’

You said, ‘I love you, if you fall, let’s take each other’s hands’

命懸けの愛してる

inochigake no aishiteru

I love you more than life [1]

炎焔へと、飛び込んだよ

homura he to, tobikonda yo

We plunged towards the flames

君は愛で、僕も愛で、吸い込まれた

kimi ha ai de, boku mo ai de, suikomareta

You were, and I too, was, swallowed up by love

一度終わって煌めいた灰の中、甦る

ichido owatte kirameita hai no naka, yomigaeru

What once ended and glistened is resurrected from the ashes

不死鳥の様に、終わらないさ

fushichou no you ni, owaranai sa

Like a phoenix, it doesn't end

Like a Phoenix, Love is resurrected.

今も揺れてる、ふたりで積み上げ

ima mo yurete ru, futari de tsumiage

It’s shaking even now, we build it together

紡いだ声、掠れて

tsumuida koe, kasurete

Our voices spun together, grazing past

僕は泣いてた、君には似合わない

boku ha naite ta, kimi ni ha niawanai

I was crying because I didn’t suit you

未来を潰してるって

mirai wo tsubushiteru tte

Like I wanted to stamp out the future

君は「大丈夫、上手くいく、何度だって支える、寄り添う」って

kimi ha ‘daijoubu, umaku iku, nando datte sasaeru, yorisou’ tte

You said ‘It’s okay, you’re doing well, I’ll support you however many times, I’ll cuddle you’

胸の中、透き通った

mune no naka, sukitootta

In my heart, cleared up

想いだけ、抱きしめて

omoi dake, dakishimete

Just a wish, I embraced it;

君の愛で、僕は愛を、証明する

kimi no ai de, boku ha ai wo, shoumei suru

With your love, I will prove my love

何度だってヨロめいた夜の中、側に居たね

nando datte yoromeita yoru no naka, soba ni ita ne

No matter how many times I stumbled at night, you were by my side

不死鳥の様に、終わらないさ

fushichou no you ni, owaranai sa

Like a phoenix, it doesn't end

羽ばたけ、ふたりで——————……

habatake, futari de–……

Spreading our wings, together……

「そうだろ？」

“soudaro?”

“Right?”

すべて投げうった僕ら

subete nageutta bokura

We abandoned everything

過去が明日を創るんだ

kako ga asu wo tsukurunda

Our past made our tomorrow

君は愛で、僕も愛で、吸い込まれた

kimi ha ai de, boku mo ai de, suikomareta

You were, and I too, was, swallowed up by love

生まれ変わって産声をあげてる、蒼穹の中で

umare kawatte ubugoe wo agete ru, sora no naka de

This reborn first cry is surfacing in the blue sky [2]

不死鳥の様に、終わらないさ

fushichou no you ni, owaranai sa

Like a phoenix, it doesn't end

不死鳥の様に、終わらないさ

fushichou no you ni, owaranai sa

Like a phoenix, it doesn't end

[1] 命懸け (inochigake) - a life and death matter. The line literally means ‘As if I’m putting my life on the line, I love you’ – 愛してる (aishiteru) is also a very intense declaration of love, and this just adds more to it..!!

[2] pretty sure 蒼穹 (soukyuu) is just pronounced ‘sora’ here!
